'Alternative Worlds in Hollywood Cinema' is the first book to analyze these imaginary realms, tracing their construction and development across periods, genres and history.
"Through an analysis of such landmark films as 'The Wizard of Oz', 'It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Groundhog Day', Walters reveals how unconventional worlds are crucial to each film's dramatic agenda and narrative structure. This groundbreaking volume unifies decades of divergent work by film scholars and points the way towards a new theoretical framework for understanding fantasy in the context of popular film. 'Alternative Worlds in Hollywood Cinema' will be an essential resource for film studies scholars and movie buffs alike." (Taken from the back cover.)

Hogan, 2003); GREAT GATSBY, THE (US/AT, Baz Luhrman, 2013) Summary: "This edited collection assesses the complex historical and contemporary relationships between US and Australian cinema by tapping directly into discussions of national cinema, transnationalism and global Hollywood. While most equivalent studies aim to define national cinema as independent from or in competition with Hollywood, this collection explores a more porous set of relationships through the varied production, distribution and exhibition associations between Australia and the US. To explore this idea, the book investigates the influence that Australia has had on US cinema through the exportation of its stars, directors and other production personnel to Hollywood, while also charting the sustained influence of US cinema on Australia over the last hundred years. It takes two key points in time—the 1920s and 1930s and the last twenty years—to explore how particular patterns of localism, nationalism, colonialism, transnationalism and globalisation have shaped its course over the last century. The contributors re-examine the concept and definition of Australian cinema in regard to a range of local, international and global practices and trends that blur neat categorisations of national cinema. Although this concentration on US production, or influence, is particularly acute in relation to developments such as the opening of international film studios in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and the Gold Coast over the last thirty years, the book also examines a range of Hollywood financed and/or conceived films shot in Australia since the 1920s." -- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9783319666754 Donation: Stephen Gaunson Contents: -- 1 Where I'm Calling From: An American-Australian Cinema? / Peter C Kunze -- pt I Across the Pacific: Looking to America -- 2 Rudimentary Modernism: Ken G Hall, Rear-Projection and 1930s Hollywood / Adrian Danks -- 3 Simulated Scenery: Travel Cinema, Special Effects and For the Term of His Natural Life / Leslie DeLassus -- 4 Representations and Hybridizations in First Nation Cinema: Change and Newness by Fusion / Jane Mills -- 5 Of Mothers and Madwomen: Mining the Emotional Terrain of Toni Collette's Anti-Star Persona / Fincina Hopgood -- pt II The View From There: Australian Films in the US -- 6 Accented Relations: Mad Max on US Screens / Tessa Dwyer -- 7 Talking Trash with Tarantino: Auteurism, Aesthetics and Authority in Not Quite Hollywood / Peter C Kunze -- 8 Australian Horror Movies and the American Market / Mark David Ryan -- 9 The Terrible Terrace: Australian Gothic Reimagined and the (Inner) Suburban Horror of The Babadook / Amanda Howell -- pt III Here and There: Crossing Between Australian, US and International Cinemas -- 10 American Cartel: Block Bookings and the Paramount Plan / Stephen Gaunson -- 11 The Multiplex Era / Jock Given -- 12 "Zest to the jaded movie palate": Wallace Worsley, Scott R Dunlap and The Romance of Runnibede / Jeannette Delamoir -- 13 Defining Neverland: P J Hogan, J M Barrie and Peter Pan in Post-Mabo Australia / Jerod Ra'Del Hollyfield -- 14 Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby Telling a National Iconic Story Through a Transnational Lens / Lesley Hawkes -- index --

The art of record offers a fascinating insight into the functions of documentary in film and television. Documentary's attempts to depict reality, and to comment on it, have provoked disagreement from the 1920s to the present day. Recent debates about knowledge and representation, and about the changing character of publiv culture, have increased its interests and relevance. John Corner presents a clear overview of the theoretical issues and critical debates around documentary, and discusses the development of the main styles and approaches, including dramadocs and fly-on-the-wall. He also looks at the dual identity of work in documentary - as both artefact and as reference.The book provides a valuable detailed analysis of powerful documentary films and programmes such as the classic 1930s films Coalface and Housing Problems (on aspects of contemporary work and environment), Cathy Come Home (whose presentation of homelessness had an enormous impact) and The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter (about the treatment of women in US factories during World War Two)." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [197]-201) and index ISBN: 0719046866 (hardcover : alk. paper); 0719046874 (pbk. : alk. paper) LON: 12095813

Autism in Film and Television brings together more than a dozen essays on depictions of autism, exploring how autistic characters are signified in media and how the reception of these characters informs societal understandings of autism.
Editors Murray Pomerance and R. Barton Palmer have assembled a pioneering examination of autism’s portrayal in film and television. Contributors consider the various means by which autism has been expressed in films such as Phantom Thread, Mercury Rising, and Life Animated and in television and streaming programs including Atypical, Stranger Things, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Community. Across media, the figure of the brilliant, accomplished, and “quirky” autist has proven especially appealing. Film and television have thus staked out a progressive position on neurodiversity by insisting on screen time for autism but have done so while frequently ignoring the true diversity of autistic experience. As a result, this volume is a welcome celebration of nonjudgmental approaches to disability, albeit one that is still freighted with stereotypes and elisions. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781477324912 Contents: -- -- Preface: Two Meditations: Who Am I?

Berlin replayed : cinema and urban nostalgia in the postwall era / Brigitta B. Wagner Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2015. Call No: 408.1 (430) WAG Author: Wagner, Brigitta B. Source: US Place: Minneapolis Publisher: University of Minnesota Press PubDate: 2015 PhysDes: x, 299 pages : illustrations, maps ; 26 cm Subject: NOSTALGIA IN FILMS; URBAN LIFE IN FILMS; GERMANY; NATIONAL IDENTITY IN FILMS. GERMANY; POLITICS IN THE CINEMA; RUN LOLA RUN (G, Tom Tykwer, 1998) Summary: "In Berlin Replayed, Brigitta B. Wagner traces how old and new films set in Berlin created a collective urban nostalgia for the city's best and most conciliatory pasts in the face of its renewed prupose as the all-German capital. Exploring films such as Walter Ruttmann's Berlin: Symphony of a Great City, Wim Wenders's wings of Desire, Tom Tykwer's Run Lola Run, and Wolfgang Becker's Good Bye, Lenin!, the book illustrates how film has repeatedly remade the image of the city. Wagner focuses on four key periods: the golden 1920s, when the city was a major filmmaking center; the prewall 1950s, when Berlin had two idealogically opposed film industries; the politically transformative late 1980s and early 1990s; and the hyped start of the twenty-first century." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9780816691746 Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema Contents: Introduction: Auf wiedersehen, Berlin! -- Remake: Berlin symphonies and the myth of the weltstadt -- Generation: a 1950s place for us -- Virtuality: cinema, archive, and the interactive map of Potsdamer Platz -- Orientation: geographical didacticism and the X-films of new Berlin -- Epilogue: Berlin returns, again

Bette Davis black and white / Julia A. Stern Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2021. Call No: 81 DAV STE Author: Stern, Julia A. Edition: 2021 Place: Chicago Publisher: University of Chicago Press PubDate: 2021 PhysDes: xi, 266 pages : illustrated Subject: DAVIS, BETTE; ANDERSON, ERNIE; BALDWIN, JAMES; CRAWFORD, JOAN; IN THIS OUR LIFE (US, John Huston, 1942); JEZEBEL (US, William Wyler, 1938); LITTLE FOXES, THE (US, William Wyler, 1941); MCDANIEL, HATTIE; RACIAL ISSUES AND THE CINEMA; WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? (US, Robert Aldrich, 1962); WYLER, WILLIAM Summary: Bette Davis’s career becomes a vehicle for a deep examination of American race relations.
Bette Davis was not only one of Hollywood’s brightest stars, but also one of its most outspoken advocates on matters of race. In Bette Davis Black and White, Julia A. Stern explores this largely untold facet of Davis’s brilliant career.
Bette Davis Black and White analyzes four of Davis’s best-known pictures—Jezebel (1938), The Little Foxes (1941), In This Our Life (1942), and What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962)—against the history of American race relations. Stern also weaves in memories of her own experiences as a young viewer, coming into racial consciousness watching Davis’s films on television in an all-white suburb of Chicago.
Davis’s egalitarian politics and unique collaborations with her Black costars offer Stern a window into midcentury American racial fantasy and the efforts of Black performers to disrupt it. This book incorporates testimony from Davis’s Black contemporaries, including James Baldwin and C. L. R. James, as well as the African American fans who penned letters to Warner Brothers praising Davis’s work. A unique combination of history, star study, and memoir, Bette Davis Black and White allows us to contemplate cross-racial spectatorship in new ways. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780226813868 Contents: Historical Note -- Chapter 1 Introduction: Black and White -- Chapter 2 Little Foxes and Little Brown Wrens -- Chapter 3 The Poetics of Color in Jezebel -- Chapter 4 Melodramas of Blood in In This Our Life -- Chapter 5 The Whiteness of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? -- Chapter 6 Bette Davis Black and White -- Acknowledgments -- Notes – Index.

(1945), A Matter of Life and Death (1947) and The Red Shoes (1948), are landmarks in British cinema, standing apart from the realist and comic mainstream with their highly stylised aesthetic and their themes of romantic longing and spiritual crisis. Powell and Pressburger are revered by film lovers and film-makers (Martin Scorsese has called them ‘the most successful experimental film-makers in the world’). In this first ever collection of essays on Powell, an international group of scholars explore his film-making landscape, providing new readings of individual films, analysing recurrent techniques and themes, and relating these to contemporary debates about gender, sexuality, nationality and cinematic spectacle. Powell, with and without Pressburger, emerges as a film-maker of lasting originality and significance. [Taken from back of book.] ISBN: 1844570940

The cinema of Wes Anderson : bringing nostalgia to life / by Whitney Crothers Dilley London New York: Wallflower Press, c2017. Call No: 81AND DIL Author: Dilley, Whitney Crothers Source: US/UK Place: London New York Publisher: Wallflower Press PubDate: c2017 PhysDes: vii, 246 pages ; 24 cm Series: Directors' cuts Subject: CRITICISM; ANDERSON, WES; RUSHMORE (US, Wes Anderson, 1998); BOTTLE ROCKET (US, Wes Anderson, 1996); ROYAL TENENBAUMS, THE (US, Wes Anderson, 2001); LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU, THE (US, Wes Anderson, 2004); DARJEELING LIMITED, THE (US, Wes Anderson, 2007); FANTASTIC MR FOX (US/UK, Wes Anderson, 2009); MOONRISE KINGDOM (US, Wes Anderson, 2012); GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL, THE (UK/G, Wes Anderson, 2014) Summary: "Wes Anderson is considered one of the most important directors of the post-Baby Boom generation, making films such as Rushmore (1998) and The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) in a style so distinctive that his films are often recognizable from a single frame. Through the travelogue The Darjeeling Limited (2007) and the stop-motion animation of Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009), his films examine issues of gender, race, and class through dysfunctional family dynamics, with particular focus on masculinity and male bonding. Anderson's auteur status is enriched by his fascination with Truffaut and the French New Wave, as well as his authorship of every one of his screenplays, drawing on influences as diverse as Mark Twain, J. D. Salinger, Roald Dahl, and Stefan Zweig. Works such as Moonrise Kingdom (2012) and The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) continue to fascinate with their postmodern, hyper-nostalgic attention to detail. This book explores the filmic and literary influences that have helped make Anderson a major voice in 21st century "indie" culture, and reveals why Wes Anderson is one of the most inventive filmmakers working in cinema today." -- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9780231180696 Contents: -- acknowledgments -- 1 Introduction: Wes Anderson as Auteur -- A History -- 2 Wes Anderson: His Position in American Cinema and Culture -- 3 Gender, Youth, and the Exploration of Masculinity in Bottle Rocket -- 4 "Sic Transit Gloria": Transgressing the Boundaries of Adolescence in Rushmore -- 5 The Interplay of Narrative Text, Language, and Film: Literary Influence and Intertextuality in The Royal Tenenbaums -- 6 Opposition and Resolution: The Dissonance of Celebrity in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou -- 7 Fragmentary Narratives/Incomplete Identities in The Darjeeling Limited -- 8 Adaptation and Homage: The World of Roald Dahl and Fantastic Mr. Fox -- 9 Reconstitution of the "Family" and Construction of Normalized Gender in Moonrise Kingdom -- 10 Literary Influence and Memory: Stefan Zweig and The Grand Budapest Hotel -- 11 Wes Anderson's Short Films and Commercial Work -- conclusion : memory and narrative in the works of Wes Anderson -- filmography -- bibliography -- index --

"Nezar AlSayyad traces the dissolution of the boundary between real and reel through time and space via a series of films that represent different modernities. He contrasts the 'rational' European city of early twentieth-century industrial modernity as portrayed by Berlin: Symphony of a Big City (1927) with its American counterpart in Modern Times (1936). He illustrates the different forms of small town life and an urbanizing modernity across the Atlantic as exemplified by Cinema Paradiso (1989) and It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Using Metropolis (1927) and Brazil (1985), he shows how utopian ideals harbour within them their dystopian realities, while Jacques Tati's nostalgia for tradition in Mon Oncle (1958) and Playtime (1967) reveals a cynical modernity and a rebelling against its idealism." "AlSayyad argues that the postmodern city of Blade Runner (1982) and Falling Down (1993) illustrates some of the urban outcomes of a globalizing economy.
Turning to spectacle and surveillance, he examines Rear Window (1954), Sliver (1993), and The End of Violence (1997) as a voyeuristic modernity. To understand the city experienced by individuals of different social backgrounds, he takes Manhattan (1979), Annie Hall (1977), and Taxi Driver (1976), while Do the Right Thing (1989) and My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) are used to explore a modernity of race and ethnicity. Finally, he uses Pleasantville (1998) and The Truman Show (1998) to unpack the hyperreality of exurban postmodernity and to demonstrate how today the real and the reel have become mutually constitutive." "By considering how the real city and the reel city reference each other in an act of mutual representation and definition, this book advances the discussion on cinematic space and theories of the city."--BOOK BLURB.

But is truth or reality readily available, easily acquired, or undisputed? Or do documentaries convey illusions of reality? What aesthetic means are used to build these illusions?
Crafting truth illuminates the way these films tell their stories; how they use the camera, editing, sound, and performance; what rhetorical devices they employ; and what the theoretical, practical, and ethical implications of those choices are. Complex documentary concepts are presented through easily accessible language, images, and a discussion of a wide range of films and videos to encourage new ways of thinking about and seeing nonfiction cinema.

Edited by one of the leading British authorities in the field, The Documentary Film Book is an essential guide to current thinking on documentary film.
In a series of fascinating essays, key international experts discuss the theory of documentary, outline current understandings of its history (from pre-Flaherty to the post-Griersonian world of digital 'i-Docs'), survey documentary production (from Africa to Europe, and from the Americas to Asia), consider documentaries by marginalised minority communities, and assess its contribution to other disciplines and arts. Brought together here in one volume, these scholars offer compelling evidence as to why, over the last few decades, documentary has come to the centre of screen studies. -- BOOK BLURB ISBN: 9781844573417 Contents: Acknowledgments -- Notes on Contributors -- Foreword: Why Documentaries Matter -- Introduction: The Filmed Documentary --; PART I: DOCUMENTARY VALUES -- The Question of Evidence, the Power of Rhetoric and Documentary Film: Bill Nichols -- 'I'll Believe It When I Trust the Source': Documentary Images and Visual Evidence: Carl Plantinga -- 'The Performance Documentary': The Performing Film-Maker, the Acting Subject: Stella Bruzzi -- On Truth, Objectivity and Partisanship: The Case of Michael Moore: Douglas Kellner -- CGI and the End of Photography as Evidence: Taylor Downing -- Drawn From Life: The Animated Documentary: Andy Glynne -- Dramadoc?

The essay film : dialogue; politics; utopia / edited by Elizabeth A. Papazian and Caroline Eades New York; Chichester, UK: Wallflower Press, 2016. Call No: 632.22 ESS Author: Papazian, Elizabeth A; Eades, Caroline Edition: 2016 Place: New York; Chichester, UK Publisher: Wallflower Press PubDate: 2016 PhysDes: xi,315 p. : illustrated ; 23 cm Subject: DOCUMENTARY FILMS; EXPERIMENTAL FILMS; CELOVEK S KINOAPPARATOM (UR, Dziga Vertov, 1929); TREE OF LIFE, THE (US, Terrence Malick, 2011); VERTOV, DZIGA; MARKER, CHRIS; Pasolini, Pier Paolo; AKERMAN, CHANTAL; GODARD, JEAN-LUC; MORETTI, NANNI; DENIS, CLAIRE; MALICK, TERRENCE Summary: With its increasing presence in a continuously evolving media environment, the essay film as a visual form raises new questions about the construction of the subject, its relationship to the world, and the aesthetic possibilities of cinema. In this volume, authors specializing in various national cinemas (Cuban, French, German, Israeli, Italian, Lebanese, Polish, Russian, American) and critical approaches (historical, aesthetic, postcolonial, feminist, philosophical) explore the essay film and its consequences for the theory of cinema while building on and challenging existing theories. Taking as a guiding principle the essay form's dialogic, fluid nature, the volume examines the potential of the essayistic to question, investigate, and reflect on all forms of cinema—fiction film, popular cinema, and documentary, video installation, and digital essay.
A wide range of filmmakers are covered, from Dziga Vertov (Man with a Movie Camera, 1928), Chris Marker (Description of a Struggle, 1960), Nicolás Guillén Landrián (Coffea Arábiga, 1968), Pier Paolo Pasolini (Notes for an African Oresteia, 1969), Chantal Akerman (News from Home, 1976) and Jean-Luc Godard (Notre musique, 2004) to Nanni Moretti (Palombella Rossa, 1989), Mohammed Soueid (Civil War, 2002), Claire Denis (L'Intrus, 2004) and Terrence Malick (The Tree of Life, 2011), among others. The volume argues that the essayistic in film—as process, as experience, as experiment—opens the road to key issues faced by the individual in relation to the collective, but can also lead to its own subversion, as a form of dialectical thought that gravitates towards crisis. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780231176958 Contents: Acknowledgments -- Notes on Contributors -- Introduction: Dialogue, Politics, Utopia, by Elizabeth A.

Exploring these questions and many more, Film Marketing into the Twenty-First Century draws on insights from renowned film scholars and leading industry professionals to chart the evolution of modern film marketing.
The first part of the book focuses on geographical considerations, showing how marketers have to adapt their strategies locally as films travel across borders. The second covers new marketing possibilities offered by the Internet, as Vine, Facebook and other participative websites open new venues for big distributors and independents alike. Straddling practical and theoretical concerns and including case studies that take us from Nollywood to Peru, this book provides an accessible introduction to the key issues at stake for film marketing in a global era." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781844578382 Contents: -- acknowledgments -- notes on contributors -- foreword / Janet Wasko -- 1: introduction / Nolwenn Mingant, Cecilia Tirtaine and Joel Augros -- `My job is to find the right signals at the right moment for the right people' an interview with Benoit Mely / Laurent Creton and Nolwenn Mingant -- I.MARKETING AND FILM CULTURE -- `There simply Isn't one-shape-fits-all for film' an interview with Michael Williams-Jones / Nolwenn Mingant -- And Tom Cruise Climbed the Burj Khalifa, or How Marketing Shapes Hollywood Film Production / Nolwenn Mingant -- `My Big Fat Life in Ruins' Marketing Greekness and the Contemporary US Independent Film / Yannis Tzioumakis and Lydia Papadimitriou -- Carry On Laughing Selling English Humour in France / Cecilia Tirtaine and Joel Augros -- Hearing Voices Dubbing and Marketing in the Ice Age Series A case study / Nolwenn Mingant -- Hollywood in China Continuities and Disjunctures in Film Marketing / Michael Curtin, Wesley Jacks and Yongli Li -- Film Marketing in Nollywood A case study / Alessandro Jedlowski -- Marketing High Frame Rate in The Hobbit Trilogy A Spectacular Case of Promoting and Un-promoting New Cinema Technology / Miriam Ross -- Niche Marketing in Peru An Interview / Nolwenn Mingant -- II.MARKETING FOR AND BY THE CONSUMER -- Leaked Information and Rumours The Buzz Effect A case study / Joel Augros -- Brave New Films, Brave New Ways The Internet and the Future of Low- to No Budget Film Distribution and Marketing / Hayley Trowbridge -- Between Storytelling and Marketing, the SocialSamba Model An Interview with Aaron Williams / Nolwenn Mingant -- Promoting in Six Seconds New Advertising Strategies Using the Video Social Network Vine in Spain A case study / Javier Lozano Delmar and Jose Antonio Muniz-Velazquez -- Piracy and Promotion Understanding the Double-edged Power of Crowds / Ramon Lobato -- Marketing Bait (2012) Using SMART Data to Identify e-guanxi Among China's `Internet Aborigines' / Brian Yecies, Jie Yang, Matthew Berryman and Kai Soh -- From Marketing to Performing the Market The Emerging Role of Digital Data in the Independent Film Business / Michael Franklin, Dimitrinka Stoyanova Russell and Barbara Townley -- POSTSCRIPT: THE INVISIBLE SIDE OF BUSINESS: B-TO-B MARKETING -- marketing the `Avatar Revolution', or How to Sell Digital Technology to Exhibitors / Kira Kitsopanidou -- `It's Africa.

The films of Douglas Sirk : exquisite ironies and magnificent obsessions / Tom Ryan Jackson, Mississippi: University Press of Mississippi, [2019]. Call No: 81SIR RYA Author: Ryan, Tom Source: US Place: Jackson, Mississippi Publisher: University Press of Mississippi PubDate: [2019] PhysDes: 309 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Subject: FILM; GERMANY; CRITICISM; DIRECTORS; SIRK, DOUGLAS; ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS (US, Douglas Sirk, 1955); WRITTEN ON THE WIND (US, Douglas Sirk, 1956); IMITATION OF LIFE (US, Douglas Sirk, 1959) Summary: "Best known for powerful 1950s melodramas like All That Heaven Allows, Written on the Wind, The Tarnished Angels, and Imitation of Life, Douglas Sirk (1897-1987) brought to all his work a distinctive style that led to his reputation as one of twentieth-century film's great directors. Sirk worked in Europe during the 1930s, mainly for Germany's UFA studios, and then in America in the 1940s and '50s. The Films of Douglas Sirk: Exquisite Ironies and Magnificent Obsessions provides an overview of his entire career, including Sirk's work on musicals, comedies, thrillers, war movies, and westerns. One of the great ironists of the cinema, Sirk believed rules were there to be broken. Whether defying the decrees of Nazi authorities trying to turn film into propaganda or arguing with studios that insisted characters' problems should always be solved and that endings should always restore order, what Sirk called "emergency exits" for audiences, Sirk always fought for his vision. Offering fresh insights into all of the director's films and situating them in the culture of their times, critic Tom Ryan also incorporates extensive interview material drawn from a variety of sources, including his own conversations with the director. Furthermore, his enlightening study undertakes a detailed reconsideration of the generally overlooked novels and plays that served as sources for Sirk's films, as well as providing a critical survey of previous Sirk commentary, from the time of the director's "rediscovery" in the late 1960s up to the present day." -- Provided by publisher. Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
Filmography: pages 257-265. ISBN: 9781496822376 Contents: Chapter One: Detlef Sierck in Europe -- Chapter Two: American Beginnings: The European Legacy -- Chapter Three: In the Shadows: Sirk and the Noir Inclination -- Chapter Four: The Uncomfortable Comedies -- Chapter Five: Sirk and God: 'The Pure Ambiguity of Experience' -- Chapter Six: Pastoral Yearnings: Sirk and the Musical -- Chapter Seven: Hollywood, Rock Hudson, and the Idea of the Hero -- Chapter Eight: Sirk, the Family Melodrama, and the Production Code -- Chapter Nine: Sirk and John M.

JE VOUS SALUE MARIE; JE VOUS SALUE MARIE (FR/SZ, Jean-Luc Godard, 1985); NOUVELLE VAGUE (Fr, Jean-Luc Godard, 1990) Summary: "The films of Jean-Luc Godard examines the work of one of the most versatile and influential filmmakers in the history of cinema. With a career ranging from France's revolutionary New Wave movement in the early 1960s, through a period of drastic political experimentation in the late 1960s and 1970s, to a current introspective period in which he explores issues of spirituality, sexuality, and the aesthetics of sound, image, and montage, Godard's work defies easy categorization. In this study, David Sterritt offers an introductory overview of Godard's work as a filmmaker, critic, and video artist. He then traces Godard's visionary ideas through six of his key films: Breathless, My Life to Live, Weekend, Numero deux, Hail Mary, and Nouvelle Vague. Also included is a concise analysis of his work in video, television, and mixed-media formats. Linking works by Godard to key social and cultural developments, The Films of Jean-Luc Godard explains their importance in modernist and postmodernist art of the last half century.

Girls on film : lessons from a life of watching women in movies / Alicia Malone Coral Gables, Florida: Mango Publishing Group, 2022. Call No: 45 [3-02] MAL Author: Malone, Alicia Edition: 2022 Place: Coral Gables, Florida Publisher: Mango Publishing Group PubDate: 2022 PhysDes: 223 pages ; 22 cm Subject: WOMEN AND THE CINEMA; WOMEN IN FILMS; NATIONAL VELVET (US, Clarence Brown, 1944); GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES (US, Howard Hawks, 1953); HORROR FILMS; HEPBURN, KATHARINE; BERGMAN, INGRID; IMITATION OF LIFE (US, Douglas Sirk, 1959) Summary: With humor and honesty, Girls on Film looks at the good, the bad, and the unfairly written women in film. This collection celebrates the power of cinema, media, culture and the faces of girls on film.
Insiders from a Nerdy Film Lover. Weaving together life lessons with movie history, film reporter Alicia Malone celebrates the power of cinema and the women who shone brightly on the big screen, while also critiquing hidden messages in films. Alicia connects film analysis with her own journey of self-discovery—from growing up as a nerdy film lover in Australia to finding her voice as a woman on television.
Each Movie has a Hidden Message. What messages and life lessons have been taken from these movies of the past—positive, negative or sometimes, both? Alicia Malone highlights many films, some with life changing moments and others with a tribute to feminist authors and messages.
In this modern approach to film reviews and women, you’ll find essays on:
- Hidden messaging and life lessons in films
- The journey of women's history in film
- Breakdowns on movie stereotypes like the the femme fatale
Women nonfiction lovers who enjoyed Where the Girls Are, or feminism books like Extraordinary Women In History, When Women Invented Television, or Renegade Women in Film and TV, will love Girls on Film. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781642506563

Hitchcock's people, places, and things / John Bruns Evanston, Illinois: Northwestern Univesity Press, 2019. Call No: 81HIT BRU Author: Bruns, John Source: US Place: Evanston, Illinois Publisher: Northwestern Univesity Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: ix, 215 pages: illustrations; 23cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; HUMAN RELATIONS IN FILMS; LODGER, THE (UK, Alfred Hitchcock, 1926); SHADOW OF A DOUBT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1943); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); BIRDS, THE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1963); CROWDS IN FILMS; MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964); I CONFESS (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1953); SUPERNATURAL IN FILMS; URBAN LIFE IN FILMS; LANDSCAPES IN FILMS Summary: "Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things argues that Alfred Hitchcock was as much a filmmaker of things and places as he was of people. Drawing on the thought of Bruno Latour, John Bruns traces the complex relations of human and nonhuman agents in Hitchcock’s films with the aim of mapping the Hitchcock landscape cognitively, affectively, and politically. Yet this book does not promise that such a map can or will cohere, for Hitchcock was just as adept at misdirection as he was at direction. Bearing this in mind and true to the Hitchcock spirit, Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things anticipates that people will stumble into the wrong places at the wrong time, places will be made uncanny by things, and things exchanged between people will act as (not-so) secret agents that make up the perilous landscape of Hitchcock’s work.
This book offers new readings of well-known Hitchcock films, including The Lodger, Shadow of a Doubt, Psycho, The Birds, and Marnie, as well as insights into lesser-discussed films such as I Confess and Family Plot. Additional close readings of the original theatrical trailer for Psycho and a Hitchcock-directed episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents expand the Hitchcock landscape beyond conventional critical borders. In tracing the network of relations in Hitchcock’s work, Bruns brings new Hitchcockian tropes to light. For students, scholars, and serious fans, the author promises a thrilling critical navigation of the Hitchcock landscape, with frequent “mental shake-ups” that Hitchcock promised his audience." -- FROM BLURB Notes: Includes bibliography and index.

Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF) is Australia's most revered celebration of cinema. It is one of the world's oldest and most storied film festivals, continuously running since 1952. To commemorate MIFF’s 70th anniversary, Black Inc. has partnered with the festival to produce an exciting collection of essays on Melbourne-made cinema.
Melbourne has a long, rich and diverse film history. It was the city where the first ever feature-length film was screened in 1906 – The Story of the Kelly Gang. It was also the birthplace of classics like Monkey Grip, Ghosts … of the Civil Dead, The Castle and Mad Max, plus many fascinating shorts and experimental films. Melbourne on Film is both a celebration of filmmaking in Melbourne, and a tribute to the city’s unique creative history.
The first collection of its kind, it includes personal reflections on the legacy and influence of these key films by some of the city’s favourite writers, including Christos Tsiolkas, Sarah Krasnostein, John Safran, Osman Faruqi, Tristen Harwood and Judith Lucy. Melbourne on Film will be treasured by cinephiles and readers of intelligent essays on arts and culture. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781760643928

Here are some of the stimulating - and occasionally surprising - answers to that question. This book is a follow-up to The Classic American Novel and the Movies, which ended in 1929, but it can be read on its own. [This book] covers novels and films from the 1930s to the 1970s, from Erskine Caldwell's Tobacco Road to James Dickey's Deliverance. In between, many film translations of notable novels are scrutinized - works by such authors as Faulkner, Hemingway, Steinbeck, McCullers, Nabokov, Updike, Kesey, and Vonnegut [...] Style, characterisation, theme, and ideology come under review.

Perfect for beginners, this book guides the reader through philosophy using illuminating cinematic works, like Avatar, Inception, Fight Club, Wings of Desire, Run Lola Run, A Clockwork Orange, Blade Runner, Dirty Harry and many other films.
The fully revised and updated Third Edition features: an expanded introduction that provides a new discussion of the relationship between film and philosophy; new material on notable philosophers such as Aristotle, Merleau-Ponty and Rawls; and coverage of new topics like virtue ethics and what Socrates offers for critical thinking. An updated glossary, references and bibliography, and a filmography, are also included in the Third Edition. -- publisher's web site Notes: Includes glossary ISBN: 9780415538169 Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- 1 - Plato’s Picture Show - the theory of knowledge -- 2 - All of Me - the self and personal identity -- 3 - Crimes and Misdemeanors - moral philosophy -- 4 - Antz - social and political philosophy -- 5 - Modern Times - society, science, and technology -- 6 - The Holy Grail - critical thinking -- Further Reading -- Glossary -- Bibliography -- Filmography -- Index

From Monsters Inc. to Toy Story and Wall-E, Pixar's animated characters take on human qualities that demand more than just cultural analysis. What animates the human subject according to Pixar? What are the ideological implications of that animation?
Pixar with Lacan has the double aim of analyzing pixar films while at once exemplifying important psychoanalytic concepts (the voice, the gaze, the partial object, the Other, the object a, the primal father, the name-of-the-father, symbolic castration, the imaginary/the real/the symbolic, desire and drive, the four discourses, masculine/feminine). In so doing , Lilian Munk Rosing expertly examines the ideological implications of the images of human existance in Pixar films.-- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781501320170 Contents: -- Introduction -- Beyond the Name of the Father: Toy Story -- Big O is Watching You: Toy Story 2 -- Sadism in the Kindergarten: Toy Story 3 -- entertainment as warfare : A Bug's Life -- There is Nothing More Toxic than a Human Child: Monsters, Inc -- Just Keep Swimming: Finding Nemo -- More than Super: The Incredibles -- the Mother Road: Cars -- Man is a Puppet, Soul is a Rat: Ratatouille -- Humanity Stuck in Vacation Hell: Wall-E -- His Master's Voice: Up -- epilogue: animation and capitalism -- references -- filmography -- index --

This one is neither. In his powerful, angry and passionate book, Kirk Douglas tells the story of his life in his own words, holding back nothing. Born Issur Danielovitch Demsky, the son of an illiterate immigrant Russian-Jewish ragman, in Amsterdam, New York, Douglas paints a searing and unforgettable picture of an almost Dickensian childhood of brutal poverty - the background that has dominated his life as an actor, father and man, fuelling the great creative anger that has added such depth to his performances. With profound and moving insight, he shows how the determination to overcome that childhood and succeed on his own terms led him to take on roles that most stars of his magnitude would never have risked - Van Gogh, in LUST FOR LIFE; Spartacus the slave; the courageous, conscience-stricken Colonel Dax, in PATHS OF GLORY; the agonized boxer Midge, in CHAMPION, to name only a few - and to fight the studios and the Hollywood establishment for the right to control and produce his own movies, long before it was common practice for stars to do so."

He shows that the conflict between ' realism' and 'tinsel' is not the simple dichotomy it might appear, and that the heritage of British cinema in the 1940s is much richer and more valuable than has hiterhto been realised." -- taken from back cover Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 260-265) and indexes ISBN: 0415076846 Contents: List of Illustrations -- General Editor's Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- 1 Britain Alone -- 2 War Culture -- 3 Realism and Tinsel -- 4 The Rank Empire -- 5 Great Expectations -- 6 Passionate Friends? -- 7 Exotic Dreams -- 8 The Spiv Cycle -- 9 Morbid Burrowings -- 10 Nothing to Laugh at at All -- 11 Challenge to Hollywood -- Conclusion -- Chronology: Cinema and Society in the Forties -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index of Film Titles -- General Index

Reconfiguring rusticity: feminizing Australian cinema's country towns in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.1 p.47-59 Author: Simpson, Catherine PhysDes: Article Subject: RURAL LIFE IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA; WOMEN IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA; RADIANCE (AT, Rachel Perkins, 1998); SOMERSAULT (AT, Cate Shortland, 2004); OYSTER FARMER, THE (AT/UK, Anna Reeves, 2004); LOVE SERENADE (AT, Shirley Barrett, 1996); ROAD TO NHILL (AT, Sue Brooks, 1997) Summary: Country towns in Australian cinema are commonly seen in opposition to a fixed, imagined urban normalcy. The first part of this paper discusses the urban/rural dialectic in the construction of rusticity. The second section examines the role women play in the rustic sphere. The last decade has seen a feminizing of the country town in films made predominantly by female directors such as Radiance (Rachel Perkins, 1998), Somersault (Cate Shortland, 2004) and The oyster farmer (Anna Reeves, 2005). The final part of this paper focuses on two break-through films from the mid-1990s, also from female creative teams, which signal a significant shift in the portrayal of women's subjectivity and agency in country towns: Love serenade (Shirley Barrett, 1996) and Road to Nhill (Sue Brooks, 1997). Although these films do not challenge the stereotype of country towns as 'irrelievably dull', their surreal lensing and black comic tone, I suggest, reconfigure rusticity. -- Abstract
