In this major examination of modern American cinema, one of our leading film critics ponders this question - and produces a wide-screen picture of the answer. Here in detail are the careers and creative milestones of the new "Whiz Kids" of hollywood - such glittering names as Scorsese, De Palma, Lucas, Spielberg, Altman, Mazursky, and Coppola. Here are the new masters of comedy - Neil Simon, Mel Brooks, Woody Allen. Here are the blockbusters that made fiscal history- Jaws, The Exorcist, the Godfather, Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Nashville, Superman, and all the others. Here, too, are the masterpieces that passed unnoticed, and the disasters that Hollywood would like to forget. Here are the new writers turning out novelizations of screenplays and screenplays of novels, and the current and rising stars who collectively represent America's vision of glamour and aristocracy. Above all, here is a bottom-line report on the new economics that have turned Hollywood from an old-fashioned industry centered on making movies into a "leisure-time" business obsessed with making money for coporate owners. Add to this a complete rundown of the top critics' choice for the best films of the decade, and a comprehensive "Who's Who" in current American filmmaking, and you have American Film Now- the definitve guide to the film industry as it is today and as it will be tomorrow."

Many of these reviews, compiled here for the first time, have a societal focus and are concerned with what the films reveal or reflect about the societies in which they were produced. They recognise, however, the aesthetic and social dimensions of film and do not neglect such matters as performance, editing and style. Throughout these reviews are discussions of images, symbolism, techniques employed by directors and genre analyses. This collection explores and is concerned with the sociopolitical and aesthetic impact of this art form and its effect on such topics as socialization, technology, racism, and sexuality. Readers will find reviews by sociologists, psychologists, pyschiatrists, political scientists and others- each offering illuminating insights and revealing analyses of these important films. An introduction by the editor focuses on the different techniques used in analyzing films. Important stills from many of the films are also included. This book will stimulate the scholar, the student, and the layman interested in film and the society behind and reflected in the films.

Though much of Hollywood's engagement with the law occurs offstage, in the larger theater of copyright, many of Hollywood's valued treasures - from Modern Times (1936) to Star Wars (1977) - cannot be fully understood without appreciating their legal controversies. Peter Decherney shows that the history of intellectual property in Hollywood has not always mirrored the evolution of the law and recounts these extralegal solutions and their impact on American media and culture." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Contains list of illustrations and indexISBN: 9780231159470

Most of these people have been interviewed so many times their answers had been turned to stone. Interviewers, too, are icon builders, and ask the same questions over and over. Celebreties, despite fame, are struggling to maintain their own living voices. It is Worrell's special gift as an interviewer and writer to hold up a mirror to the most closely held of reflections. Icons reads like a collection of finely honed short storie and raises the craft of celebrity reporting to the finest journalism." -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 0871133067Donation: Donated by Simon WincerContents: Author's note -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction by Otto Friedrich -- Madonna is her given name -- The Eternal Childhood of Steven Spielberg -- Steve Martin in color -- Plain-wrap superstar Paul Newman -- Nastassia Kinski: wild child -- Bob Dylan down executioner's row -- David Lean on the far horizon -- The dark side of George Lucas -- Very very Bette Midler -- Oliver Stone goes to war -- Michael Jackson in Never-Never Land.

Drawing on many popular and some lesser known films from around the world, Christopher Falzon introduces students to key areas in philosophy, like: Ethics, Social and Political Philosophy, The Theory of Knowledge, The Self and Personal Identity, Critical Thinking.
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 siteNotes: Includes glossaryISBN: 9780415538169Contents: 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

Reconsidering tropes such as the male juvenile delinquent figure, the makeover and the teen vampire, the book uses a series of detailed case studies of films like Rebel Without a Cause, Grease, Heathers and Twilight to explore the genre's relation to critical concepts of intersectionality, postfeminism and the posthuman. This book is an innovative overview of the Hollywood teen movie and its construction of teen identity." -- taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 192-202), filmography (pages 203-208), and index.ISBN: 9781474431729Contents: List of Figures -- Acknowledgements -- 1.Introduction -- 2.Rethinking the Teen Movie -- 3.Acting Up: Performing Masculine Delinquency in the Teen Movie -- 4.Making Over: Gender and Class at the High School Prom -- 5.Looking Back: Nostalgia, Postfeminism and the Teen Movie -- 6.Becoming Other: The Posthuman and the Teen Movie -- 7.Conclusion: Not Another Teen Movie? -- Bibliography -- Filmography -- Index

USA ; COPPOLA, FRANCIS FORD ; LADD, ALAN, Jr. ; TANEN, NED ; LUCAS, GEORGE ; AMERICAN GRAFFITI (US, George Lucas, 1973) ; RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (US, Steven Spielberg, 1981) ; STAR WARS (US, George Lucas, 1977) ; THX 1138 4EB (US, George Lucas, 1967) Summary: "SKYWALKING is the story of one of the most creative visionaries in all film history. George Lucas was a typical Californian child of no great promise - he read comic books and watched TV; no one guessed that his imagination would inspire millions of people. Dale Pollock brilliantly tells the story of Lucas's legendary days at USCinema and his tangles with Francis Coppola and Universal Pictures. Pollock was one of the few reporters allowed on the set of RETURN OF THE JEDI, and he takes us behind the scenes of Lucas's movies. We find out how Artoo-Detoo got his name, how the Force came to be, and many other surprising revelations. Complete with photographs from Lucas's private collection, SKYWALKING is a powerful biography about a man who is setting the future course of film for years to come."

Abrams, 2015) ; ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY (US, Gareth Edwards, 2016) ; STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (US, Rian Johnson, 2017) ; FRANCHISES ; STAR WARS: REBELS Summary: Focusing on The Force Awakens (2015), Rogue One (2016), The Last Jedi (2017), and the television series Rebels (2014–18), Dan Golding explores the significance of pop culture nostalgia in overcoming the skepticism, if not downright hostility, that greeted the Star Wars relaunch. In its granular textual readings, broad cultural scope, and insights into the complexities of the multimedia galaxy, this book is as entertaining as it is enlightening.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781517905422Contents: Introduction: Star wars and the history of nostalgia
Before the empire: the politics of George Lucas and the critique of the original trilogy
It calls to you: selling Star wars in 2015
Look how old you've become: the force awakens as legacy film
An awakening: diversity as the politics of the force awakens
Just like old times?: music, seriality, and the fugue of the force awakens
You have to start somewhere: contrasting nostalgias in the force awakens and rogue one
You think anybody's listening?: fighting fascism in rogue one and rebels
I've always hated watching you leave: death, Han Solo, and Carrie Fisher
I will finish what you started: Star wars from the last jedi and beyond.

In the decade since then, his reputation as an inventive filmmaker with an unerring gift for knowing what will attract the paying customer has gone from strength to strength. Spielberg's technical assurance and gift for creating dazzling special effects are matched by his ability to interpret stories with the kind of pace and style that brooks no resistance. He has with some justification been called 'a magician in the age of the movies', yet despite his phenomenal success as a commercial filmmaker (no less than four of his films are among the top fifteen top money-making films of all time), he has been conspicuous by his absence in the lists of Academy Award winners. Is he, as some critics claim, merely the 'General Motors of kids movies', or will the next decade see him make a successful move into directing films with adult themes?"
