20 years from the waist up : tales of a TV news anchor / by Richard Morecroft Sydney: HarperCollins, 2002. Call No: 81MOR MOR Author: Morecroft, Richard Source: AT Place: Sydney Publisher: HarperCollins PubDate: 2002 PhysDes: 285 p., [16]p. of plates : ill. (some col.), ports.

AUSTRALIA; MORECROFT, RICHARD Summary: "Richard Morecroft is a familiar face in Australian homes... from the waist up! Now, in this collection of amusing anecdotes and surprising stories, Richard reveals the lighter side of life for a serious broadcaster. Why does our favourite news anchor have his own halo? Does a baby bat in his shirt help him read the headlines? And what's the worst mistake he's ever made on air? Then there are times when the public and private collide. Beaming into thousands of homes each night guarantees familiarity, but sometimes Richard gets more than he bargains for. Like being hugged and kissed in a lift by a complete stranger...Like being stalked in a car park by senior citizens...Like being accused of having a secret facelift...
Richard Morecroft has been the face of ABC television news for almost two decades. In addition to his familiar nightly news role, he has fronted current affairs and business programs, anchored election broadcasts, written and narrated wildlife and other documentaries, and hosted a range of educational producations.
... and what does he wear under the newsdesk?" -- BOOK BLURB ISBN: 0732275105 Contents: -- a bit below the belt -- foot in mouth disease -- a little nip and tuck -- the voice of god -- 'is that a flying fox in your pocket...?' -- the ties that blind -- 'im sorry, ill read that again -- getting on famously -- weather...or not -- sound system -- '...and it's good night from him' -- to sleep, perchance to...aargh! -- media exposure -- but I want to be a lion tamer! -- centrefolds and a cold shower -- animal antics -- write off! -- early daze -- twilight zone -- clive hale's eyebrow -- stage fright -- the truth, the whole truth... -- and that's the news to this minute -- richard's bio in brief --

March 20, 2019 marked the end of an era -- Disney took ownership of the movie empire that was Fox. For almost a century before that historic date, Twentieth Century-Fox was one of the preeminent producers of films, stars, and filmmakers. Its unique identity in the industry and place in movie history is unparalleled -- and one of the greatest stories to come out of Hollywood. One man, a legendary producer named Darryl F. Zanuck, is the heart of the story. This narrative tells the complete tale of Zanuck and the films, stars, intrigue, and innovations of the iconic studio that was. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780762470938

Philip Brophy delves deep into the chaos of meaning engendered by anime's mutation of Eastern and Western themes, images and sounds, enabling the reader to navigate the post-war shock waves that still propel Japan's popular culture. Individual entries on 100 key anime films, from Akira to Spirited Away by way of Blue Seed, Ghost in the Shell and Neon Genesis Evangeleon, present plot synopses and discussion of the films' sources and influences and major themes, as well as information about the sub genre or genres to which each film belongs, and selected credits. Philip Brophy's introduction to the volume provides a framework for understanding the 100 films in terms of the vast anime industry, as well as explaining how the calligraphic tradition contributed to the development and popularity of anime, and highlighting the events and themes in Japanese culture that have shaped and are reflected in anime.

Edward Buscombe provides an illuminating guide to a hundred key films of the genre, from Broken Arrow to The Wild Bunch by way of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, A Fistful of Dollars, The Magnificent Seven and The Searchers. Each entry includes a plot synopsis, major credits, and a commentary on the film’s significance, together with its production and exhibition history. Edward Buscombe’s introduction to the volume discusses the criteria for selecting a mere hundred essential Westerns out of the thousands that have been made since the birth of cinema. He considers the relative weight to be attached to the acknowledged great directors of the genre, such as John Ford and Sam Peckinpah, and to lesser known but significant figures such as Delmer Daves. He takes stock of the contribution of the great Western stars, including John Wayne, James Stewart and Clint Eastwood. And he argues for a selection that takes into account Westerns of the silent era, B-Westerns and singing cowboys, and those Westerns made outside America. [Taken from back cover.] ISBN: 1844571122

The act of documenting : documentary film in the 21st century / Brian Winston, Gail Vanstone and Wang Chi London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2017. Call No: 761 WIN Author: Winston, Brian; Vanstone, Gail; Chi, Wang Source: UK Place: London Publisher: Bloomsbury Academic PubDate: 2017 PhysDes: xii ; 271 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Subject: DOCUMENTARY FILMS; FILMMAKING; AESTHETICS; EDITING; PRODUCTION; CAMERAS Summary: “Fiercely argued, urgently rendered, and rigorously researched, The Act of Documenting whacks through the ethical, political, moral, evidentiary, and argumentative acts undergirding documentary production and reception. This gutsy, vital book cuts to the core of documentary: it interrogates the place of documentary in the world and how it engages people and ideas in ways that truly matter. Moving adroitly between the histories of analog documentary and the promising landscapes of digital forms, this substantial, sage book irrefutably shows that ethics, politics, and philosophical inquiry override formats, interfaces, and technologies. Polemical yet lyrical, forceful yet inviting, this book leaves the reader exhilarated with new ways of thinking about and through documentary. The opening chapter précis could be assembled as an intellectual toolkit for all us in the act of documentary-theorists, historians, practitioners, programmers, or offered as a manifesto cracking open the most salient issues demanding our attention and action.” -- Patricia R. Zimmermann, Professor of Screen Studies, Ithaca College, USA Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781501309175

Activist film festivals : towards a political subject / Sonia Tascon and Tyson Wils [editors] Bristol, U.K. ; Chicago, USA: Intellect Books, 2017. Call No: 151 TAS Author: Tascon, Sonia; Wils, Tyson Edition: 2017 Place: Bristol, U.K. ; Chicago, USA Publisher: Intellect Books PubDate: 2017 PhysDes: vi, 250 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Subject: FESTIVALS; POLITICAL FILMS Summary: Film festivals are an ever-growing part of the film industry, but most considerations of them focus almost entirely on their role in the business of filmmaking. This book breaks new ground by bringing scholars from a range of disciplines together with industry professionals to explore the concept of festivals as spaces through an activist lens, as spaces where the sociopolitical identities of communities and individuals are confronted and shaped. Tracing the growth of activist and human rights-focused films from the 1970s to the present, and using case studies from San Francisco, Brazil, Bristol, and elsewhere, the book addresses such contentious topics as whether activist films can achieve humanitarian aims or simply offer "cinema of suffering." -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781783206346

This compelling study corrects such omissions by detailing the theory and practice of alternative adaptation practices from major avant-garde directors. Avant-Garde films are often relegated to the margins because they challenge our traditional notions of what film form and style can accomplish. Directors who choose to adapt previous material run the risk of severe critical dismay; making films that are highly subjective interpretations or representations of existing texts takes courage and foresight. An avant-garde adaptation provokes spectators by making them re-think what they know about film itself, just as much as the previous source material.Adaptation and the Avant-Garde examines films by Peter Greenaway, Jean-Luc Godard, Guy Maddin, Jan Svankmajer and many others, offering illuminating insights and making us reconsider the nature of adaptation, appropriation, borrowing, and the re-imagining of previous sources. -- extract taken from the back of the book. -- Notes: Formerly CIP. --

AUSTEN, JANE; ADAPTATIONS. SHAKESPEARE, WILLIAM; AUTHORSHIP; COMIC STRIPS; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA; INTERTEXUALITY; TARANTINO, QUENTIN; ALL ABOUT EVE (US, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1950); GREAT GATSBY, THE (US/AT, Baz Luhrman, 2013); MUSIC IN FILMS; WOLF HALL [TV] (UK, 2015) Summary: This book explores the intersection between adaptation studies and what James F. English has called the “economy of prestige,” which includes formal prize culture as well as less tangible expressions such as canon formation, fandom, authorship, and performance. The chapters explore how prestige can affect many facets of the adaptation process, including selection, approach, and reception. The first section of this volume deals directly with cycles of influence involving prizes such as the Pulitzer, the Man Booker, and other major awards. The second section focuses on the juncture where adaptation, the canon, and awards culture meet, while the third considers alternative modes of locating and expressing prestige through adapted and adaptive intertexts. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of adaptation, cultural sociology, film, and literature. -- [taken from publishers site] Notes: Includes index ISBN: 9783319528533 Contents: 1.Adaptation and Systems of Cultural Value / Eric Sandberg -- 2.The Pulitzers Go to Hollywood / Thomas Leitch -- 3.Beware of Imitations: All about Eve (1950) / Laurence Raw -- 4.Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall(s) and the Circulation of Cultural Prestige / Eric Sandberg -- 5.Adapting Queerness, Queering Adaptation: Fun Home on Broadway / Joanna Mansbridge -- 6.Oliver's Auteurs: The Cases of Lean and Polanski / Jeffrey E.

Adaptation industry : the cultural economy of contemporary literary adaptation / Simone Murray London: Routledge, 2013. Call No: 753 MUR Author: Murray, Simone Source: UK Place: London Publisher: Routledge PubDate: 2013 PhysDes: 253 pages ; 23 cm Series: ROUTLEDGE RESEARCH IN CULTURAL AND MEDIA STUDIES. Subject: ADAPTATIONS; SCRIPTWRITING Summary: Adaptation constitutes the driving force of contemporary culture, with stories adapted across an array of media formats. However, adaptation studies has been concerned almost exclusively with textual analysis, in particular with compare-and-contrast studies of individual novel and film pairings. This has left almost completely unexamined crucial questions of how adaptations come to be made, what are the industries with the greatest stake in making them, and who the decision-makers are in the adaptation process. The Adaptation Industry re-imagines adaptation not as an abstract process, but as a material industry. It presents the adaptation industry as a cultural economy of six interlocking institutions, stakeholders and decision-makers all engaged in the actual business of adapting texts: authors; agents; publishers; book prize committees; scriptwriters; and screen producers and distributors. Through trading in intellectual property rights to cultural works, these six nodal points in the adaptation network are tightly interlinked, with success for one party potentially auguring for success in other spheres. But marked rivalries between these institutional forces also exist, with competition characterizing every aspect of the adaptation process. This book constructs an overdue sociology of contemporary literary adaptation, never losing sight of the material and institutional dimensions of this powerful process. -- Taken from the publishers site ISBN: 9780415710541 Contents: Machine generated contents note: 1.What Are You Working On?: The Expanding Role of the Author in an Era of Cross-media Adaptation -- 2.World Rights: Literary Agents as Brokers in the Contemporary Mediasphere -- 3.Making Words Go Further: Book Fairs, Screen Festivals and Writers' Weeks as Engine Rooms of Adaptation -- 4.The Novel Beyond the Book: Literary Prize-Winners on Screen -- 5.Best Adapted Screenwriter?: The Intermedial Figure of the Screenwriter in the Contemporary Adaptation Industry -- 6.Cultivating the Reader: Producer and Distributor Strategies for Converting Readers into Audiences

Beginning with the history of Shakespeare on film, from Olivier's and Branagh's Hamlet, contributors examine screen versions of literary classics, from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and Louisa May Alcott's Little Women to Thomas Keneally's Schindler's Ark and Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting. Adaptations goes on to consider adaptation in reverse: How writers like Virginia Woolf incorporated cinematic elements into their work, and explains why there had to be a novel of Jane Campion's The Piano. Contributors examine adaptations from comics to film, such as the Batman movies, Star Trek's incarnations as a long-running tv series, and then as a sequence of movies, and 101 Dalmations' [sic] move from children's novel to cartoon to live-action film." - BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 226-238) and index ISBN: 041516737X (hbk); 0415167388 (pbk); 041516737X (hardcover : alk. paper); 0415167388 (pbk : alk. paper) LON: 14255526 Contents: Part 1: an overview -- Adaptations: the contemporary dilemmas / Imelda Whelehan; Part 2: from text to screen -- Introduction / Deborah Cartmell -- The Shakespeare on screen industry / Deborah Cartmell -- Conservative Austen, radical Austen: Sense and Sensibility from text to screen / Julian North -- From Emma to Clueless: taste, pleasure and the scene of history / Esther Sonnet -- Imagining the puritan body: the 1995 cinematic version of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter / Roger Bromley -- Four Little Women: three films and a novel / Pat Kirkham and Sarah Warren -- Will Hollywood never learn?

"Categorized by genre, and featuring movies by master directors such as Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, Frank Capra, and John Ford, as well as relative newcomers such as Chris Eyre and Christopher Nolan, Adaptations offers insight into the process of turning a short story into a screenplay, one that, when successful, doesn't take drastic liberties with the text upon which it is based, but doesn't mirror its source material too closely either."--BOOK JACKET.

Delving equally into the individual approaches of directors and writers, Hsiu-Chuang Deppman initiates readers into the exciting possibilities emanating from the world of Chinese cinema. The seven in-depth studies include a diverse array of forms (cinematic adaptation of literature, literary adaptation of film, auto-adaptation, and non-narrative adaptation) and a variety of genres (martial arts, melodrama, romance, autobiography, documentary drama). Complementing this formal diversity is a geographical range that far exceeds the cultural, linguistic, and physical boundaries of China. The directors represented here also work in the U.S. and Europe and reflect the growing international resources of Chinese-language cinema." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references (p. 215-233) and index ISBN: 9780824834548 Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema 2013 Contents: -- acknowledgments -- introduction -- 1.

This book provides the first study which systematically explores the ‘coming of age’ theme in Australian feature films produced since the turn of the millennium, foregrounding how films use a range of diverse (his)stories to respond to the centrality of this theme.
Rather than focussing on ‘coming of age’ mainly in its portrayal of a (successful) maturation process, this study explores the possibilities inherent in what is conceived of as a ‘permanently’ transitional ‘coming of age’ process, providing a crucial starting point for the re-definition of national fictions. A range of cinematic genres, including the road movie, crime film, sport film, romance and musical, is used to challenge and (to varying degrees) destabilise the national myth of Australia as a youthful, egalitarian society with a chance and ‘fair go’ for everyone. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9783825369187

In a reading of the formal aspects in film imagery in contemporary British films spanning social realist, melodrama and horror genres, Hockenhull demonstrates how the spiritual aspects of landscape and nature mobilise a Neo-Romantic effect. She traces the influence of Romanticism and notions of the Sublime in key British films including 'Sweet Sixteen', 'The Queen', 'Ratcatcher', 'Eden Lake', '28 Days Later', 'My Summer of Love' and 'The Last Great Wilderness'. Operating at the intersection between film theory, art theory and aesthetics, this is a vital contribution which enables a fuller, multidimensional understanding of cinematic experience." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.

Affective authorship : contemporary Asian Australian documentary in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.2 p.157-170 Author: Smaill, Belinda PhysDes: Article Subject: DOCUMENTARY FILMS. AUSTRALIA; ASIANS IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA; ETHNIC GROUPS AND THE CINEMA; PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF FILMS; FINISHED PEOPLE, THE (AT, Khoa Do, 2003); LETTERS TO ALI (AT, Clara Law, 2004); SADNESS: A MONOLOGUE BY WILLIAM YANG (AT, Tony Ayres, 1999); CHINESE TAKEAWAY (AT, Mitzi Goldman, 2002) Summary: Documentary is a genre not widely understood through its capacity to engage the emotions. This article works to acknowledge the affective labour performed by documentary and, more specifically, the way emotions give meaning to documentary subjects. The analysis explores the production of Asian Australian subjects as documentary authors in four prominent films produced over the previous decade: Chinese Takeaway (Mitzi Goldman, 2002), Sadness: A Monologue by William Yang (Tony Ayres, 1999), The Finished People (Khoa Do, 2003) and Letters to Ali (Clara Law. 2004). These texts allow for a fruitful examination of the way the emotions that shape the expression of these author-subjects, such as mourning and care, might impact on the documentary representation of cultural otherness. Asian Australian subjectivity coalesces in and around these texts in a manner that is founded on the activity of mourning. Included here are not only the bereavements of loved ones, but also the losses that are bound to the movements of modernity, such as the lost fullness which is the promise of diaspora, the failure or absence of universal citizenship and the lack of safety in life lived in advanced capitalism. This article explores not only the absences suggested in these films, but also how these absences present a site of ethical encounter for the viewer that both resists reducing and assimilating the Asian Australian author to a devalued ethnic other while also addressing a community of viewers through a relation of reciprocity based in caring attachments to the social realm. -- Abstract Notes: Part of Special Issue: Transnational Asian Australian Cinema. Part 1

After taste : cultural value and the moving image / edited by Julia Vassilieva and Constantine Verevis Abingdon: Routledge, 2012. Call No: 62(04) AFT Source: K Place: Abingdon Publisher: Routledge PubDate: 2012 PhysDes: viii, 173 pages ; 25 cm. Subject: B-MOVIES; CRITICISM; RECEPTION; AMATEUR FILMS; LOW BUDGET FILMS; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA Summary: In the wake of the debates over high/low culture distinction spilling into the effective dismantling of the boundary that once separated them, the past decade has seen the explosion of ‘bad taste’ production on screen. Starting with paracinema or ‘badfilm’ – a movement that has grown up around sleazy, excessive, or poorly executed B-movies and has come to encompass disreputable and unworthy films – this trend has been evident in various formats: on television and in video-art, low-budget and straight to TV films, amateur and home movies. The proliferation of trash on screen can be seen as delivering the final blow to the vexed issue of taste.
More importantly, it prompts a reconsideration of some critical issues surrounding production, circulation, understanding and teaching of ‘bad objects’ in the media. This collection of essays, written by international film and television scholars, provides detailed critical analysis of the issues surrounding judgements of cultural value and taste, feeling and affect, cultural morals and politics, research methodologies and teaching strategies in the new landscape of ‘after taste’ media. Addressing global and local developments – from global Hollywood to Australian indigenous film and television, through auteurs Sergei Eisenstein to Jerry Bruckheimer, on to examples such as Twilight to Sukiyaki Western Django – the essays in this book offer a range of critical tools for understanding the recent shifts affecting cultural, aesthetic and political value of the moving image.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies. Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. ISBN: 9780415845939 Contents: 1.

Today she is best known as the innovative “mother” of the French New Wave film movement of the 1950s and '60s and for her multimedia art exhibitions. Varying her use of different media, she is a figure who defies easy categorization. In this extensively researched book, Rebecca J. DeRoo demonstrates how Varda draws upon the histories of art, photography, and film to complicate the overt narratives in her works and to advance contemporary cultural politics. Based on interviews with Varda and unparalleled access to Varda's archives, this interdisciplinary study constructs new frameworks for understanding one of the most versatile talents in twentieth and twenty-first century culture. " -- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued online ISBN: 9780520279414 Contents: -- Acknowledgments -- Reinterpreting Varda: the mother of the new wave reframes its histories -- Complicating neorealism and the new wave: La Pointe Courte -- Filmic and feminist strategies: questioning ideals of happiness in Le Bonheur -- Reconsidering contradictions: feminist politics and the musical genre in L'une Chante, L'autre Pas -- The limits of documentary: identity and urban transformation in daguerreotypes -- Melancholy and merchandise: documenting and displaying widowhood in L'iIe Et Elle -- Varda now: autobiography, memory, and retrospective -- notes -- bibliography -- index --

Alan Hopgood has been a long-time writer and actor within the Australian film, tv, and theatre scene. His work includes screenplays for films such as Alvin Purple, Alvin Rides Again, Pacific Banana, as well as television shows such as Bellbird, Alvin Purple, And the Big Men Fly, Neighbours, Pugwall, and The Flying Doctors.
Alan was involved with Bellbird when the Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) had made a decision to change the screening time of its show Bellbird. This did not sit well with a large selection of the viewing public who protested this move and wrote to the ABC to complain. Alan kept those letters in a view to get them published in a book, which didn’t eventuate. These letters were kept and are part of Alan’s donation to the AFI Research Collection Donation: donated by Alan Hopgood, 2010 ID2: 56

The Alexander Medvedkin Reader / Alexander Medvedkin; Translated by Nikita Lary and Jay Leyda Chicago; London: The University of Chicago Press, 2016. Call No: 620 MED LAR Author: Medvedkin, Alexander Place: Chicago; London Publisher: The University of Chicago Press PubDate: 2016 PhysDes: xv, 356 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Series: Cinema and modernity Subject: MEDVEKIN, ALEXANDER; MARKER, CHRIS; SCHASTYE [HAPPINESS] (UR, Alexander Medvedkin, 1935) Summary: "Filmmaker Alexander Medvedkin (1900–89), a contemporary of Sergei Eisenstein and Alexander Dovzhenko, is celebrated today for his unique form of “total” documentary cinema, which aimed to bridge the distance between film and life, as well as for his use of satire during a period when the Soviet authorities preferred that laughter be confined to narrowly prescribed channels. This collection of selected writings by Medvedkin is the first of its kind and reveals how his work is a crucial link in the history of documentary film. Although he was a dedicated Communist, Medvedkin’s satirical approach and social critiques ultimately led to his suppression by the Soviet regime. State institutions held back or marginalized his work, and for many years, his films were assumed to have been lost or destroyed. These texts, many assembled for this volume by Medvedkin himself, document for the first time his considerable achievements, experiments in film and theater, and attempts to develop satire as a major Soviet film genre. Through scripts, letters, autobiographical writings, and more, we see a Medvedkin supported and admired by figures like Eisenstein, Dovzhenko, and Maxim Gorky." -- Publisher's website Notes: Includes notes, glossary and index; translated from Russian ISBN: 9780266296272 Donation: Senses of Cinema Contents: On the front lines of war and revolution -- 1.

Alright, alright, alright : the oral history of Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused / Melissa Maerz New York: Harper, 02/05/2022. Call No: 79 DAZ MAE Author: Maerz, Melissa Edition: 2020 Place: New York Publisher: Harper PubDate: 02/05/2022 PhysDes: 464 pages : illustrated ; 21cm Subject: DAZED AND CONFUSED (US, Richard Linklater, 1993); SLACKER (US, Richard Linklater, 1990) Summary: The definitive oral history of the cult classic Dazed and Confused, featuring behind-the-scenes stories from the cast, crew, and Oscar-nominated director Richard Linklater.
Dazed and Confused not only heralded the arrival of filmmaker Richard Linklater, it introduced a cast of unknowns who would become the next generation of movie stars. Embraced as a cultural touchstone, the 1993 film would also make Matthew McConaughey’s famous phrase—alright, alright, alright—ubiquitous. But it started with a simple idea: Linklater thought people might like to watch a movie about high school kids just hanging out and listening to music on the last day of school in 1976.
To some, that might not even sound like a movie. But to a few studio executives, it sounded enough like the next American Graffiti to justify the risk. Dazed and Confused underperformed at the box office and seemed destined to disappear. Then something weird happened: Linklater turned out to be right. This wasn’t the kind of movie everybody liked, but it was the kind of movie certain people loved, with an intensity that felt personal. No matter what their high school experience was like, they thought Dazed and Confused was about them.
Alright, Alright, Alright is the story of how this iconic film came together and why it worked. Combining behind-the-scenes photos and insights from nearly the entire cast, including Matthew McConaughey, Parker Posey, Ben Affleck, Joey Lauren Adams, and many others, and with full access to Linklater’s Dazed archives, it offers an inside look at how a budding filmmaker and a cast of newcomers made a period piece that would feel timeless for decades to come. -- publisher's web site

The altering eye : contemporary international cinema / Robert Phillip Kolker Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1983. Call No: 62 KOL Author: Kolker, Robert Phillip Source: US Place: Oxford Publisher: Oxford University Press PubDate: 1983 PhysDes: 428 p. : ill. ; 21 cm Subject: HISTORY OF CINEMA; CRITICISM; PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA; DE SICA, VITTORIO; GODARD, JEAN-LUC Summary: " Most filmmakers, especially in the United States, have chosen not to upset their audiences. But since World War 2, an alternative cinema has emerged on a significant scale, particularly in Europe and Latin America- a cinema that challenges rather than soothes, that questions assumptions rather than reinforces them. This kind of film - "made in a spirit of resistance, rebellion, and refusal" - is the focus of this important and stimulating study. Investigating many movements and styles, Robert Phillip Kolker illuminates both their diversity and their common threads. He starts with the seminal achievements of the Italian neo-realists (Rossellini, De Sica, Visconti), examining the filmmakers who influenced them and their influence in turn on later filmmakers in Engalnd, Brazil, India and Europe. He looks at the modernist experiments of Resnais and Antonioni and pays special attention to the directors of the French New Wave (Godard, Truffaut, Chabrol, Rohmer, Rivette), who broke down the remaining traditions of cinematic storytelling and invented new ones.
With deftness and clarity, Kolker discusses the New Wave's influence on such older directors as Bresson and Bunuel, as well as on younger ones, such as Ken Russell, Nicolas Roeg, and Jean-Marie Straub. He investigates the New German Cinema of Fassbinder, Wenders, and Herzog, filmmakers who have furthered the effort to make cinema a tool of enquiry and visual invention. He concludes with a look at specific political and psychological elements in contemporary film, particularly in the work of revolutionary Latin American filmmakers, the Hungarian director Miklos Jancso, as well as Godard, Bertolucci, Fassbinder, Losey, and Bunuel." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 405-415 ISBN: 0195033027 Contents: -- introduction -- one: the vaildity of image -- two: the substance of form -- three: politics, psychology, and memory -- notes -- bibliography -- index -- URL status: URL: 'http://-'

'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.)

Ambiguity and film criticism : reasonable doubt / Hoi Lun Law Cham, Switzerland: Palgrave Macmillan, 26/02/2021. Call No: 620 HOI Author: Law, Hoi Lun Edition: 2021 Place: Cham, Switzerland Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan PubDate: 26/02/2021 PhysDes: ix, 191 pages : illustrated Series: Palgrave close readings in film and television Subject: CRITICISM; LATE SPRING [BANSHUN] (JA, Yasujiro Ozu, 1949); [TEN] 10 [DIX] (FR/IR, Abbas Kiarostami, 2002); IN A LONELY PLACE (US, Nicholas Ray, 1950); FORCE MAJEURE [TURIST] (SW/FR/NO, Ruben Ostlund, 2014); BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT (US, Fritz Lang, 1956) Summary: This book defends an account of ambiguity which illuminates the aesthetic possibilities of film and the nature of film criticism. Ambiguity typically describes the condition of multiple meanings. But we can find multiple meanings in what appears unambiguous to us. So, what makes ambiguity ambiguous? This study argues that a sense of uncertainty is vital to the concept. Ambiguity is what presses us to inquire into our puzzlement over a movie, to persistently ask "why is it as it is?" Notably, this account of the concept is also an account of its criticism. It recognises that a satisfying assessment of what is ambiguous involves both our reason and doubt; that is, reason and doubt can work together in our practice of reading. This book, then, considers ambiguity as a form of reasonable doubt, one that invites us to reflect on our critical efforts, rethinking the operation of film criticism. -- cover blurb ISBN: 9783030629472 Contents: Introduction: Rethinking Ambiguity -- Part One: Considering Context and Convention -- 1.

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 American comic book industry and Hollywood / Alisa Perren and Gregory Steirer London: bfi Publishing, Call No: 753.5 PER Author: Perren, Alisa; Steirer, Gregory Edition: 2021 Place: London Publisher: bfi Publishing PhysDes: 250 pages ; 24 cm Subject: COMIC STRIPS AND THE CINEMA; COMIC STRIPS; COMIC STRIP CHARACTERS IN FILMS; SUPERHEROES IN FILMS; MARVEL; MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT; SUPERMAN IN FILMS Summary: The American Comic Book Industry and Hollywood traces the evolving relationship between the American comic book industry and Hollywood from the launch of X-Men, Spider-Man, and Smallville in the early 2000s through the ascent of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Arrowverse, and the Walking Dead Universe in the 2010s.
Perren and Steirer illustrate how the American comic book industry simultaneously has functioned throughout the first two decades of the twenty-first century as a relatively self-contained business characterized by its own organizational structures, business models, managerial discourses, production cultures, and professional identities even as it has remained dependent on Hollywood for revenue from IP licensing. The authors' expansive view of the industry includes not only a discussion of the “Big Two,” Marvel/Disney and DC Comics/Time Warner, but also a survey of the larger comics ecosystem.

The Boston and Cambridge area is notable for nurturing these approaches to documentary film via institutions such as the MIT Film Section and the Film Study Center, the Carpenter Center and the Visual and Environmental Studies Department at Harvard. Scott MacDonald uses pragmatism's focus on empirical experience as a basis for measuring the groundbreaking achievements of such influential filmmakers as John Marshall, Robert Gardner, Timothy Asch, Ed Pincus, Miriam Weinstein, Alfred Guzzetti, Ross McElwee, Robb Moss, Nina Davenport, Steve Ascher and Jeanne Jordan, Michel Negroponte, John Gianvito, Alexander Olch, Amie Siegel, Ilisa Barbash, and Lucien Castaing-Taylor. By exploring the cinematic, personal, and professional relationships between these accomplished filmmakers, MacDonald shows how a pioneering, engaged, and uniquely cosmopolitan approach to documentary developed over the past half century.

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."

American television during a television presidency / edited by Karen McNally Detroit, Michigan: Wayne State University Press, April 2022. Call No: 49[32](73) AME Author: McNally, Karen Edition: 2022 Place: Detroit, Michigan Publisher: Wayne State University Press PubDate: April 2022 PhysDes: 336 pages ; 24 cm Series: Contemporary approaches to film and media Subject: TELEVISION. USA; TRUMP, DONALD; APPRENTICE, THE [TV] (US, 2004); CHERNOBYL [TV] (US/UK, 2019); POLITICS AND TV. USA; GOOD WIFE, THE [TV] (US, 2009); BLACKLISTING. USA; PLOT AGAINST AMERICA (US, 2020); SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE [TV] (US, 1975-); STAR TREK [ GENERAL]; AMERICAN HORROR STORY [TV] (US, 2011) Summary: In American Television during a Television Presidency, Karen McNally and contributors critically examine the various ways in which television became transfixed by the Trump presidency and the broader political, social, and cultural climate. This book is the first to fully address the relationship between TV and a presidency consistently conducted with television in mind.
The sixteen chapters cover everything from the political theater of televised impeachment hearings to the potent narratives of fictional drama and the stinging critiques of comedy, as they consider the wide-ranging ways in which television engages with the shifting political culture that emerged during this period. Approaching television both historically and in the contemporary moment, the contributors - an international group of scholars from a variety of academic disciplines- illuminate the indelible links that exist between television, American politics, and the nation’s broader culture. As it interrogates a presidency played out through the lens of the TV camera and reviews a medium immersing itself in a compelling and inescapable subject, American Television during a Television Presidency sets out to explore what defines the television of the Trump era as a distinctive time in TV history. From inequalities to resistance, and from fandom to historical memory, this book opens up new territory in which to critically analyze television’s complex relationship with Donald Trump, his presidency, and the political culture of this unsettled and simultaneously groundbreaking era.
Undergraduate and graduate students and scholars of film and television studies, comedy studies, and cultural studies will value this strong collection. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780814349359 Donation: Senses of Cinema

AUSTRALIA Summary: "Ana Kokkinos is an Australian screenwriter, producer and director who has worked in film and television for almost thirty years. Best known for her fictional films - Antamosi, Only the Brave, Head On, The Book of Revelation and Blessed - her work is often bold and confrontational in its exploration of the alienation, estrangement and visceral distresses of those outside the mainstream. In the first major study of the director, Ana Kokkinos: An Oeuvre of Outsiders offers new readings of and across her fictional oeuvre by broadly tracing the deployment of the outsider as an organising motif." - taken from back cover.

POLAND; POLITICS AND THE CINEMA. POLAND; NOSTALGIA IN FILMS; POLAND; WAJDA, ANDRZEJ Summary: "The work of Andrzej Wajda, one of the world's most important filmmakers, shows remarkable cohesion in spite of the wide ranging scope of his films, as this study of his complete output of feature films shows. Not only do his films address crucial historical, social and political issues; the complexity of his work is reinforced by the incorporation of the elements of major film and art movements such as Socialist Realism, Italian Neorealism, the documentary tradition, French New Wave, Surrealism, the grotesque, the theatre of the absurd, propaganda film, Polish Romantic tradition and many other artistic phenomena (jazz, Polish student subculture). It is the reworking of all these different elements by Wajda, as the author shows, which give his films their unique visual and aural qualities."--BOOK JACKET.
