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

Adaptation, awards culture, and the value of prestige / Edited by Colleen Kennedy-Karpat and Eric Sandberg Cham, Switzerland: Springer International Publishing, 2017. Call No: 753 ADA Author: Kennedy-Karpat, Colleen Place: Cham, Switzerland Publisher: Springer International Publishing PubDate: 2017 PhysDes: ix, illustrations (colour), 22cm Series: Palgrave studies in adaptation and visual culture Subject: ADAPTATIONS; ADAPTATIONS. 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.

"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.

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.

Audio-vision : sound on screen / Michel Chion; foreword by Walter Murch; edited and translated by Claudia Gorbman New York: Columbia University Press, 2019. Call No: 634 CHI Author: Chion, Michel Edition: 2019 Place: New York Publisher: Columbia University Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: xxiii, 270 pages : illustrated ; 23cm Subject: SOUND; GODARD, JEAN-LUC; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; MUSIC AND THE CINEMA; MUSIC IN FILMS; RESNAIS, ALAIN; ROBBE-GRILLET, ALAIN; WELLES, ORSON; Wenders, Wim; DOLCE VITA, LA (FR/IT, Federico Fellini, 1960); PERSONA (SW, Ingmar Bergman, 1966); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); TYSTNADEN (SW, Ingmar Bergman, 1963) Summary: Michel Chion’s landmark Audio-Vision has exerted significant influence on our understanding of sound-image relations since its original publication in 1994. Chion argues that sound film qualitatively produces a new form of perception. Sound in audiovisual media does not merely complement images. Instead, the two channels together engage audio-vision, a special mode of perception that transforms both seeing and hearing. We don’t see images and hear sounds separately—we audio-view a trans-sensory whole.
In this updated and expanded edition, Chion considers many additional examples from recent world cinema and formulates new questions for the contemporary media environment. He takes into account the evolving role of audio-vision in different theatrical environments, considering its significance for music videos, video art, commercial television, and the internet, as well as conventional cinema. Chion explores how multitrack digital sound enables astonishing detail, extending the space of the action and changing practices of scene construction. He demonstrates that speech is central to film and television and shows why “audio-logo-visual” is a more accurate term than “audiovisual.” Audio-Vision shows us that sound is driving the creation of a sensory cinema.
This edition includes a glossary of terms, a chronology of several hundred significant films, and the original foreword by sound designer, editor, and Oscar honoree Walter Murch. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780231185899 Contents: Foreword (1994), by Walter Murch -- Preface -- Part I.

This engaging new study brings fresh perspectives, insights, and innovative approaches to a variety of films from a diversity of filmmakers. Areas of focus include the complex and contentious subjects of masculinity, femininity and feminism, the maternal, as well as the Indigenous road film and the protean Australian gothic. During the formative years of the revival, Australian films seemed to emerge from out of the blue in terms of global film history, with many features including Picnic at Hanging Rock (l975), Caddie (l976), The Last Wave (l977), The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith (l978), and My Brilliant Career (l979) receiving international distribution and enthusiastic critical acclaim with strong box office results. By the time the film revival was in full swing, not only did Australian audiences flock to theaters to see “homegrown” films, but the quantity of Australian films on overseas screens was so high that ardent critics declared this outpouring an Australian “New Wave.” The eyes of the world had turned to a compelling and largely unknown culture. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781501390029 Contents: Acknowledgements -- Dedication -- In Memory Of -- Introduction -- 1.

Australian genre film / edited by Kelly McWilliam and Mark David Ryan New York: Routledge, Call No: 730(94) AUS Author: McWilliam, Kelly; Ryan, Mark David Edition: 2021 Place: New York Publisher: Routledge PhysDes: 248 pages : illustrated ; 23 cm Series: Rutledge advances in film studies Subject: AUSTRALIA; GENRES; BIOGRAPHICAL FILMS; COMEDIES. AUSTRALIA; CRIME FILMS. AUSTRALIA; HORROR FILMS. AUSTRALIA; MUSICALS. AUSTRALIA; ROAD MOVIES. AUSTRALIA; TEEN FILMS; WAR FILMS AUSTRALIA Summary: Australian Genre Film interrogates key genres at the core of Australia’s so-called new golden age of genre cinema, establishing the foundation on which more sustained research on film genre in Australian cinema can develop.
The book examines what characterises Australian cinema and its output in this new golden age, as contributors ask to what extent Australian genre film draws on widely understood (and largely Hollywood-based) conventions, as compared to culturally specific conventions of genre storytelling. As such, this book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of Australian genre film, undertaken through original analyses of 13 significant Australian genres: action, biopics, comedy, crime, horror, musical, road movie, romance, science fiction, teen, thriller, war, and the Western.
This book will be a cornerstone work for the burgeoning field of Australian film genre studies and a must-read for academics; researchers; undergraduate students; postgraduate students; and general readers interested in film studies, media studies, cultural studies, Australian studies, and sociology. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781138603141 Contents: 1.

In doing so, it explores an array of often hidden ways women in Australia have creatively worked with film. Beyond the Silver Screen examines film in a broad sense, considering feature filmmaking alongside government documentaries and political films. It also focuses on women's work regulating films and supporting film culture through organising film societies and workshops to encourage female filmmakers. As such, it tells a new narrative of Australian film history.
Beyond the Silver Screen reveals the variety of roles film has in Australian society. It presents film as a medium of creative and political expression, which women have engaged with in diverse ways throughout the twentieth century.

What prompted these changes and how and when did this decolonisation of documentary film production occur? Taking a long historical perspective, this book is based on a study of a selection of Australian documentary films produced by and about Aboriginal peoples since the early twentieth century. The films signpost significant shifts in Anglo-Australian attitudes about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and trace the growth of the Indigenous filmmaking industry in Australia.
Used as a form of resistance to the imposition of colonialism, filmmaking gave Aboriginal people greater control over their depiction on documentary film and the medium has become an avenue to contest widely held assumptions about a peaceful colonial settlement. This study considers how developments in camera and film stock technologies along with filmic techniques influenced the depiction of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. The films are also examined within their historical context, employing them to gauge how social attitudes, access to funding and political pressures influenced their production values. The book aims to expose the course of race relations in Australia through the decolonisation of documentary film by Aboriginal filmmakers, tracing their struggle to achieve social justice and self-representation. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781789974782 Contents: Acknowledgements -- Cultural Warning and Acknowledgement -- Abbreviations -- Introduction -- Aboriginalities -- Media Ecology -- The Longue Durée -- Decolonising the Documentary Film in Australia -- Stages of the Journey -- Part I Exotic Subjects, 1901–1966 -- Chapter 1 The Last of Their Kind: Aboriginal Life in Central Australia (1901) -- Chapter 2 Physical Traits: Life in Central Australia (1931) -- Chapter 3 Benign and Iconic: Aborigines of the Sea Coast (1950) -- Chapter 4 The “Last” of Their Kind, Again: Desert People (1967) -- Part II Voices for Change, 1957–1972 -- Chapter 5 Not Dying Out Quietly: Warburton Aborigines (1957) -- Chapter 6 A Discomforting Assimilation: The Change At Groote (1968) -- Chapter 7 Challenging White Indifference: Ningla-A-Na (Hungry for Our Land) (1972) -- Part III Counting the Cost, 1978–1987 -- Chapter 8 Telling My Story My Way: My Survival As An Aboriginal (1978) -- Chapter 9 On Being Stolen: Lousy Little Sixpence (1983) -- Chapter 10 Picking Up the Broken Pieces: Link-Up Diary (1987) -- Part IV Digital Directors: Decolonising Documentary Film, 2002–2017 -- Chapter 11 Setting the Records Straight: Whispering in Our Hearts: The Mowla Bluff Massacre (2002) -- Chapter 12 The Sounds of Spaces Between: Willaberta Jack (2007) -- Chapter 13 Breaking the Drought at the Sydney Film Festival: We Don’t Need a Map (2017), Occupation Native (2017), In My Own Words (2017)and Connecting to Country (2017) -- Bibliography -- Index

Isao Takhata, 1991) Summary: Born on January 5, 1941 in Tokyo, Hayao Miyazaki is known as the ‘Japanese Disney’, a filmmaker as revered - and as popular - as Walt Disney or Steven Spielberg. Miyazaki, in short, is a true phenomenon in contemporary animation and in world cinema.
Hayao Miyazaki's movies include Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Laputa: Castle In the Sky and My Neighbor Totoro.
Hayao Miyazaki may be the most talented fantasy filmmaker of his generation: not even the finest filmmakers of Hollywood can rival his films when it comes to creating fantasy worlds, and fantastical characters and events. Miyazaki has millions of fans around the world, not least among fellow animators and filmmakers, for whom he is a genius.
What Hayao Miyazaki’s films do is to bring you completely into a fantasy world that is actually instantly recognizable and familiar. It’s as if these fantasy realms have always existed - very much like J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth or Ursula Le Guin’s Earthsea (both influences on Miyazaki). The visionary and magical elements are fused with the domestic and familial and social elements , so that it seems completely ordinary and believable that, say, flying machines soar overhead which have flapping wings like an insect, or that little white creatures pop up out of trees.
To write one hit animation movie is amazing, to write seven is remarkable. To write and direct one spectacular animated picture is very impressive, to write and direct seven features is almost unheard-of in the world of contemporary commercial animation.
This new study of Hayao Miyazaki considers all of his films and TV shows (and his manga work). It also includes chapters on Studio Ghibli; on fellow director Isao Takahata; Miyazaki's influences; his contemporaries and colleagues; his characters; his movies' relation to Western animation (including Disney); his unmade films; and his themes and motifs.
The Cinema of Hayao Miyazaki also explores Japanese animation, its production and style, some classics of anime, and digital animation.
Includes quotes by Miyazaki; fans on Miyazaki; and resources.
Fully illustrated. With filmography, bibliography and notes.

"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.

Cinematography in the Weimar Republic : Lola Lola, dirty singles, and the men who shot them / Paul Matthew St. Pierre London: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, Call No: 23(430) Author: St. Pierre, Paul Matthew Place: London Publisher: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press PhysDes: 274 p. ; illus. ; 24 cm Series: Fairleigh Dickinson University Press series in communication studies Subject: CINEMATOGRAPHY; GERMANY; EXPRESSIONISM; LUBITSCH, ERNST; WAGNER, FRITZ ARNO; MURNAU, FRIEDRICH WILHELM; LANG, FRITZ; PABST, GEORG WILHELM; RITTAU, GUNTHER; DREYER, CARL TH. Summary: In film history, director-cinematographer collaborations were on a labor spectrum, with the model of the contracted camera operator in the silent era and that of the cinematographer in the sound era. But in Weimar era German filmmaking, 1919-33, a short period of intense artistic activity and political and economic instability, these models existed side by side due to the emergence of camera operators as independent visual artists and collaborators with directors.
Berlin in the 1920s was the chief site of the interdisciplinary avant-garde of the Modernist movement in the visual, literary, architectural, design, typographical, sartorial, and performance arts in Europe. The Weimar Revolution that arose in the aftermath of the November 1918 Armistice and that established the Weimar Republic informed and agitated all of the art movements, such as Expressionism, Dada, the Bauhaus, Minimalism, Objectivism, Verism, and Neue Sachlichkeit (“New Objectivity”). Among the avant-garde forms of these new stylistically and culturally negotiated arts, the cinema was foremost and since its inception had been a radical experimental practice in new visual technologies that proved instrumental in changing how human beings perceived movement, structure, perspective, light exposure, temporal duration, continuity, spatial orientation, human postural, facial, vocal, and gestural displays, and their own spectatorship, as well as conventions of storytelling like narrative, setting, theme, character, and structure. Whereas most of the arts mobilized into schools, movements, institutions, and other structures, cinema, a collaborative art, tended to organize around its ensembles of practitioners.
Historically, the silent film era, 1895-1927, is associated with auteurs, the precursors of François Truffaut and other filmmakers in the 1960s: actuality filmmakers and pioneers like R. W. Paul and Fred and Joe Evans in England, Auguste and Luis Lumière and Georges Méliès in France, and Charles Chaplin and Buster Keaton in America, who, by managing all the compositional, executional, and editorial facets of film production—scripting, directing, acting, photographing, set, costume, and lighting design, editing, and marketing—imposed their personal vision or authorship on the film. The dichotomy of the auteur and the production ensemble established a production hierarchy in most filmmaking.
In formative German silent film, however, this hierarchy was less rank or class driven, because collaborative partnerships took precedence over single authorship. Whereas in silent film production in most countries the terms filmmaker and director were synonymous, in German silent film the plural term filmemacherin connoted both directors and cinematographers, along with the rest of the filmmaking crew. Thus, German silent filmmakers’ principle contribution to the new medium and art of film was less the representational iconographies of Expressionist, New Objective, and Naturalist styles than the executional practice of co-authorship and co-production, in distinctive cinematographer-director partnerships such as those of cinematographer Theodor Sparkuhl and director Ernst Lubitsch; Fritz Arno Wagner with F. W. Murnau, Fritz Lang, and G. W. Pabst; Rudolf Maté with Carl Theodor Dreyer; Guido Seeber with Lang and Pabst; and Carl Hoffmann with Lang and Murnau.

Circuit listening : Chinese popular music in the global 1960s / Andrew F. Jones Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2020. Call No: 751.0 (5) JON Author: Jones, Andrew F. Edition: 2020 Place: Minneapolis Publisher: University of Minnesota Press PubDate: 2020 PhysDes: ix, 274 pages : illustrated Subject: CHINOISE, LA (FR, Jean-Luc Godard, 1967); CITY OF SADNESS, A [; TAIWAN; DYLAN, BOB; MUSIC IN FILMS; SHAW BROTHERS Summary: What did Mao’s China have to do with the music of youth revolt in the 1960s? And how did the mambo, the Beatles, and Bob Dylan sound on the front lines of the Cold War in Asia? In Circuit Listening, Andrew F. Jones listens in on the 1960s beyond the West, and suggests how transistor technology, decolonization, and the Green Revolution transformed the sound of music around the globe.
Focusing on the introduction of the transistor in revolutionary China and its Cold War counterpart in Taiwan, Circuit Listening reveals the hidden parallels between music as seemingly disparate as rock and roll and Maoist anthems. It offers groundbreaking studies of Mandarin diva Grace Chang and the Taiwanese folk troubadour Chen Da, examines how revolutionary aphorisms from the Little Red Book parallel the Beatles’ “Revolution,” uncovers how U.S. military installations came to serve as a conduit for the dissemination of Anglophone pop music into East Asia, and shows how consumer electronics helped the pop idol Teresa Teng bring the Maoist era to a close, remaking the contemporary Chinese soundscape forever.
Circuit Listening provides a multifaceted history of Chinese-language popular music and media at midcentury. It profiles a number of the most famous and best loved Chinese singers and cinematic icons, and places those figures in a larger geopolitical and technological context. Circuit Listening’s original research and far-reaching ideas make for an unprecedented look at the role Chinese music played in the ’60s pop musical revolution. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781517902070 Contents: Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction.

It displays the rich diversity of film production in the country, and in doing so highlights a number of specific contexts - Maori, documentary and short filmmaking, literary adaptations, the development of the national Film Commission and Archive, marketing and censorship, in addition to explorations into the place of bicultural relations, spirituality, masculinity and disability - that have created a cinema of global significance. Featuring critical accounts of internationally-acclaimed features like The Piano and Once Were Warriors, as well as the growth of the national infrastructure that made such films possible, Contemporary New Zealand Cinema is the most thorough study available of a vibrant filmmaking culture. The book also includes a fully comprehensive filmography detailing all New Zealand feature and television films."--BOOK JACKET Notes: Filmography: p.[239]-253

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.

This book surveys the careers of the central creators of those stories for Australian television—the writers who learnt how to work in a new medium, adapting to its constraints and exploring its creative possibilities. Informed by interviews with many writers, it describes the establishment of Australian television drama production, observing the way writers grasped the creative and business opportunities that television presented. It examines the development of Australian versions of the major television genres—the sitcom, the police drama, the historical series, docudrama, and social drama— presenting a ‘canon’ of significant Australian television drama productions that deserve to be remembered. It offers an account of the emergence of work by Indigenous writers for television and it argues for the consideration of television drama alongside histories of Australian film and stage drama. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781925984880

Dont look back / by Keith Beattie London: A BFI Book published by Palgrave, 2016. Call No: 79DON BEA Author: Beattie, Keith Source: UK Place: London Publisher: A BFI Book published by Palgrave PubDate: 2016 PhysDes: 87 pages : illustrations ; 19 cm Series: BFI film classics Subject: MUSICIANS IN FILMS; DOCUMENTARIES; CINEMA-DIRECT; DYLAN, BOB; PENNEBAKER, D. A.; DONT LOOK BACK (US, D.A. Pennebaker, 1967) Summary: "The award-winning film Dont Look Back (1967) captures Bob Dylan on tour and on the cusp of change in 1965. Dylan was rapidly shedding his image as a folk musician and being reborn as a rock persona – and D. A. Pennebaker was there to record this fascinating transformation.
This insightful book charts the ways in which Pennebaker revised aspects of observational 'direct cinema', a style of film-making that he helped to pioneer, in order to represent in innovative ways Dylan's onstage performances and backstage actions. Keith Beattie's perceptive and nuanced analysis explains the relationship between 'pose' and the performative presentation of 'persona',
which forms the basis of the film's portrayal, and explores Pennebaker's relationship with Dylan in the film-making process. In doing so, the book highlights many remarkable moments from Dont Look Back and demonstrates how this landmark film eschewed the informationalism of the documentary form, revealing a captivating portrait of its beguiling subject" -- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references ISBN: 9781844577613 Contents: -- acknowledgments -- prologue: on a prologue -- 1 Portraiture, Performance and Collusion -- 2 Screen Test -- 3 Hanging Out -- 4 `You Don't Need a Weatherman' -- 5 Casting a Spell -- afterimages -- notes -- credits --

Drawn to sound : animation film music and sonicity / edited by Rebeecca Coyle London ; Oakville: Equinox, 2010. Call No: 772 DRA Author: Coyle, Rebecca (ed.) Source: US/UK Place: London ; Oakville Publisher: Equinox PubDate: 2010 PhysDes: x, 258 p. : ill. ; 24 cm Series: Genre, music and sound Subject: ANIMATION; ANIMATORS; MUSIC AND THE CINEMA; MUSIC IN FILMS; MUSIC, FILM; SOUND; SOUND TRACKS Summary: "Animation films are produced around the world and attract sizeable audiences and much critical acclaim. No longer marginalized in genres such as children's or propoganda films, they are increasingly the subject of academic study. At the same time, attention has turned to the music and sound, which contribute to both the emotional impact and the narrative drive, as well as the marketing appeal, of such films. This ground-breaking volume bridges these two fields and also positions animation-film sound and music in the context of the screen and music industries. Animation experts like Paul Wells and Daniel Goldmark and film-music authorities including Philip Hayward, Ian Inglis and Janet Halfyard provide international perspectives on the history and aesthetics of music and sound in animation film.
Drawn to Sound focuses on feature-length, widely distributed films released in the period since World War II, from producers in the USA,UK, Japan and France - from Animal Farm (1954) to Happy Feet (2006), Yellow Submarine (1968) to Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005), Spirited Away (2001) and Les Triplettes de Belleville (2003). It spotlights important studios, including Disney, Dreamworks, Aardman Animation and studio Ghibli, and composers, both those who collaborate personally with directors and those whose msuic is used to provide period or mood atmospheres.

Hoberman delivers a brilliant and witty look at the decade when politics and pop culture became one. This was the era of the Missile Gap and the Space Race, the Black and Sexual Revolutions, the Vietnam War and Watergate - as well as the tele-saturation of the American market and the advent of Pop art. In "elegant, epigrammatic prose" (A.O Scott), Hoberman moves from the political histories of movies to the theater of wars, national political campaigns, and pop-culture events. With entertaining reinterpretations of key Hollywood movies such as Bonnie and Clyde, The Wild Bunch, and Shampoo, and meditations on personages ranging from John Wayne and Patty Hearst to Jane Fonda, Ronald Reagan, and Che Guevara.

The dynamic frame : camera movement in classical Hollywood / Patrick Keating New York; Chichester, UK: Columbia University Press, Call No: 233.6(73) KEA Author: Keting, Patrick Edition: 2019 Place: New York; Chichester, UK Publisher: Columbia University Press PhysDes: xi,350 pages : illustrated ; 24 cm Subject: BERKELEY, BUSBY; BORDWELL, DAVID; CAMERA ANGLES; CITIZEN KANE (US, Orson Welles, 1941); CONVERGENCE; FORD, JOHN; HAWKS, HOWARD; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; LAST LAUGH, THE (G, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, 1924); MAMOULIAN, ROUBEN; MURNAU, FRIEDRICH WILHEL; PREMINGER, OTTO; SUNRISE (US, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, 1927); TOLAND, GREGG; VIDOR, KING; WELLES, ORSON Summary: The camera’s movement in a film may seem straightforward or merely technical. Yet skillfully deployed pans, tilts, dollies, cranes, and zooms can express the emotions of a character, convey attitude and irony, or even challenge an ideological stance. In The Dynamic Frame, Patrick Keating offers an innovative history of the aesthetics of the camera that examines how camera movement shaped the classical Hollywood style.
In careful readings of dozens of films, including Sunrise, The Grapes of Wrath, Rear Window, Sunset Boulevard, and Touch of Evil, Keating explores how major figures such as F. W. Murnau, Orson Welles, and Alfred Hitchcock used camera movement to enrich their stories and deepen their themes. Balancing close analysis with a broader poetics of camera movement, Keating uses archival research to chronicle the technological breakthroughs and the changing division of labor that allowed for new possibilities, as well as the shifting political and cultural contexts that inspired filmmakers to use technology in new ways. An original history of film techniques and aesthetics, The Dynamic Frame shows that the classical Hollywood camera moves not to imitate the actions of an omniscient observer but rather to produce the interplay of concealment and revelation that is an essential part of the exchange between film and viewer. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780231190510 Contents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

Earogenous zones : sound, sexuality and cinema / edited by Bruce Johnson London: Equinox, 2010. Call No: 632.6 JOH Source: UK Place: London Publisher: Equinox PubDate: 2010 PhysDes: x, 246 p. : ill. ; 24 cm Subject: SOUND; SEX IN FILMS; MUSIC IN FILMS; ULTIMO TANGO A PARIGI (IT/FR, Bernardo Bertolucci, 1972); LAST EMPEROR, THE (UK/CC, Bernardo Bertolucci, 1987); SHELTERING SKY, THE (US/IT, Bernardo Bertolucci, 1990); EMPIRE OF THE SENSES [AI NO CORRIDA / EMPIRE DES SENS, L'] (JA/FR, Nagisa Oshima, 1976); BARBARELLA (FR/IT, Roger Vadim, 1967); EYES WIDE SHUT (US/UK, Stanley Kubrick, 1999) Summary: With its capacity to defamiliarize and subvert visual representation, sound is not simply a source of information supplementary to the visual in the cinematic representation of sexuality, but a site of ambiguous ideologies and power relations. --
This collection exemplifies a variety of approaches to the sonic representation of sexuality in cinema. It draws on a range of sexual scenarios from pornography to sci-fi to art-house and includes cinema from various cultures and countries. Among the topics addressed are how the deployment of sound is implicated in gender politics in the representation of sexuality and how sounds are able to radically colour and even override the visual and lexical content of a film. --
Through sonicity the film-maker can challenge the ideologies at play underneath surface stereotypes, and introduce emotional overtones which meliorate the alienation generally associated with porn. Sound and music can establish a historical period as well as spatially localize sexuality within a framework that problematizes the distinctions between porn and erotica. They can introduce into the ahistorical sextopia of porn the cultural specificity of the notion of 'pornography' and indeed can shift a film in and out of that category, even desexualizing the naked human body. --

The bestselling author David Bret traces the development of Presley's film career and recounts the on-set cat fights with co-stars and studio personnel. He unearths the truth about the powerful hold exercised over Elvis by 'Colonel' Tom Parker, which revolved around Parker preventing a leak about Presley's relationship with another man from going public and then using this knowledge as a persistant threat to ensure his protege's loyalty.
Bret explores and hotly disputes the controversial allegations, levelled by Presley's step-family, that he had sex with his mother, raped his wife, held debauched, drug fuelled parties with groupies and eventually committed suicide. Above all, the author praises the nature and talent of the man who was - and still is - the supreme authority on rock'n'roll and romance.

Empty moments : Cinema, modernity, and drift / Leo Charney Durham, London: Duke University Press, 1998. Call No: 631 CHA Author: Charney, Leo Place: Durham, London Publisher: Duke University Press PubDate: 1998 PhysDes: ix, 189 pages ; 25 cm Subject: PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA; AESTHETICS; PERCEPTION; SURREALISM AND THE CINEMA; UNCANNY GAZE; MUYBRIDGE, EADWEARD; DULAC, GERMAINE; BRETON, ANDRE; HUSSERL, EDMUND; HEIDEGGER, MARTIN; SAUSSURE, FERDINAND DE; EISENSTEIN, SERGEI M.; EPSTEIN, JEAN Summary: "In Empty Moments, Leo Charney describes the defining quality of modernity as "drift" - the experience of being unable to locate a stable sense of the present. Through an exploration of artistic, philosophical, and scientific interrogations of the experience of time, Charney presents cinema as the emblem of modern culture's preoccupation with the reproduction of the present.
Empty Moments creates a catalytic dialogue among those who, at the time of the invention of film, attempted to define the experience of the fleeting present. Interspersing philosophical discussions with stylistically innovative prose, Charney mingles Proust's conception of time/ memory with Cubism's attempt to interpret time through perspective and Surrealism's exploration of subliminal representations of the present. Other topics include Husserl's insistence that the present can only be fantasy or fabrication and the focus on impossibility, imperfection, and loss in Kelvin's laws of thermodynamics. Ultimately, Charney's work hints at parallels among such examples, the advent and popularity of cinema, and early film theory." -- Blurb Notes: Includes notes, bibliography and index ISBN: 0822320908 Donation: Adrian Miles Contents: One: Drift -- Two: The present moment -- Three: Peaks and valleys -- Four: What's the use? -- Five: Boredom -- Six: The end of pleasure -- Seven: A horizontal line

Fast Times and Excellent Adventures goes behind the scenes of a genre where cult hits mingled with studio blockbusters, where giants like Spielberg and Coppola rubbed shoulders with baby-faced first-timers and where ambitious future superstars Sean, Demi and Tom all got their big break. Music, comedy and politics - all play a part in the surprisingly complex history of the '80s teen movie. And while the films might have been aimed primarily at adolescents, the best tackle universal issues and remain a magnet to all ages. Time of your life, huh kid?
From a late '70s Hollywood in flux to an early '90s indie scene that gave youth cinema a timely reboot, respected film expert James King smartly highlights the personal struggles, the social changes and the boardroom shake-ups that produced an iconic time in movie history" -- BOOK BACK COVER Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781472123725

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.

Her films, including 'Chocolat', 'Beau travail' and 'White Material' explore connections between national experience and individual circumstance, visualising the complications of such dualities. Following a foreword by Wim Wenders, international contributors explore the themes she addresses in her films, such as kinship and landscape, neo-colonialism and New French Extremity. Original interviews with an editor, actor and two composers familiar with Denis's working style and with Denis herself, also reveal fresh facets of this intrepid filmmaker." - BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes list of illustrations, bibliographic references and index ISBN: 9781848859548 Contents: --List of illustrations -- Notes on contributors -- Preface -- Foreword: 'Klarchen'

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.

Nair has broken new ground as both a feminist filmmaker and an Indian filmmaker. Several of her works, especially those related to the South Asian diaspora, have been influential around the globe. Amardeep Singh delves into the complexities of Nair's films from 1981 to 2016, offering critical commentary on all of Mira Nair's major works, including her early documentary projects as well as shorts. The subtitle, "Diaspora Ve´rite´," alludes to Singh's primary theme: Nair's filmmaking project is driven aesthetically by her background in the documentary realist tradition (cinema ve´rite´) and thematically by her interest in the lives of migrants and diasporic populations. Mainly, Nair's filmmaking intends to document imaginatively the experiences of diasporic communities. Nair's focus on the diasporic appears in the long list of her films that have explored the subject, such as Mississippi Masala, So Far from India, Monsoon Wedding, The Perez Family, My Own Country, The Namesake, and The Reluctant Fundamentalist. However, a version of the diasporic sensibility also emerges even in films with an apparently different scope, such as Nair's adaptation of Thackeray's Vanity Fair. Nair began her career as a documentary filmmaker in the early 1980s. While Nair now has largely moved away from the documentary format in favor of making fictional feature films, Singh shows that a documentary realist style remains active in her subsequent fictional cinema."-- Provided by publisher.

Yet in spite of Fosse's deep cultural significance, no biography has ever brought him fully to life, unveiling the man behind the bowler hat and the swaggering sex appeal. Now, acclaimed cultural historian Sam Wasson traces Fosse's numberless reinventions of himself over a career that would spawn The Pajama Game, Cabaret, Pippin, Chicago, All That Jazz, and other iconic works of art and earn him Tonys, Emmys, and an Oscar. Wasson traces not only Fosse's prodigious professional life, but his intense relationships with everyone from Liza Minnelli, Fred Astaire, and Neil Simon to Shirley MacLaine, Jessica Lange, and Dustin Hoffman. Through extensive interviews with collaborators and lovers and unprecedented access to Fosse's archives, Wasson also reveals the deep wounds that propelled his subject's excessive appetites--for spotlights, women, and life itself. In Fosse, Wasson's stylish, effervescent prose proves the ideal vehicle for reanimating Bob Fosse as he truly was--after hours, close up, and in vibrant color" -- FROM TROVE Notes: Contains photos and index ISBN: 9780547553290

From Melies to new media : spectral projections / Wendy Haslem Bristol: Intellect, 2019. Call No: 701"00" HAS Author: Haslem, Wendy Edition: 2019 Place: Bristol Publisher: Intellect PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: 191 pages : illustrated ; 24 cm Subject: COMPUTER GENERATED IMAGERY; COMPUTERS AND THE CINEMA; HISTORY OF CINEMA. SILENT PERIOD; MUYBRIDGE, EADWEARD; MELIES, GEORGES; BENJAMIN, WALTER; COLOUR; EISENSTEIN, SERGEI M.; MULVEY, LAURA; GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY, THE (US, Edwin S. Porter, 1903); TRIP TO THE MOON [VOYAGE DANS LA LUNE] (FR, George Melies, 1902) Summary: From Méliès to New Media contributes to a dynamic stream of film history that is just beginning to understand that new media forms are not only indebted to but firmly embedded within the traditions and conventions of early film culture. Adopting a media archaeology, this book will present a comparative examination of cinema including early film experiments with light and contemporary music videos, silent film and their digital restorations, German Expressionist film and post-noir cinema, French Gothic film and the contemporary digital remake, Alfred Hitchcock’s films exhibited in the gallery, post medium films as abstracted light forms and interactive digital screens revising experiments in precinema. Media archaeology is an approach that uncovers the potential of intermedial research as a fluid form of history. It envisages the potential of new discoveries that foreground forgotten or marginalised contributions to history. It is also an approach that has been championed by influential new historicists like Thomas Elsaesser as providing the most vibrant and productive new histories (2014). -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781783209897 Contents: List of Illustrations -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction: Beginnings and Ends: Historical Collusion -- Chapter 1: Cigarette Burns and Bullet Holes: Celluloid Cues in Digital Cinema -- Section I: Early Cinema: Colour and Spectrality -- Chapter 2: Applied Colour: Chromatic Frankenstein's Monsters? -- Chapter 3: The Serpentine Dance Films: 'Dream Visions That Change Ten Thousand Times a Minute' -- Section II: Luminescence, Montage and Frame Ratios -- Chapter 4: Memory and Noir: Neon Contrasts -- Chapter 5: Cutting: Shock and Endurance -- Chapter 6: Screens, Scale Ratio: Vertical Celluloid in the Digital Age -- Section III: Cinema Beyond the Frame -- Chapter 7: Hallucinatory Framing and Kaleidoscopic Vision -- Chapter 8: Ephemeral Screens: The Muybridgizer -- Bibliography -- Index

Armstrong’s films are unique in their aesthetic expression and in the ethical relationships that they depict, framed through the language of gender inclusivity and due in part to her foregrounding of original, complex and nuanced female characters. This important book fills a gap in the literature on women screen practitioners and is a long overdue response to demands for new insight into the work of this significant director.

A Hitchcock Reader grows out of the editors' desire as classroom teachers for a comprehensive and critical text in introductory or advanced courses devoted to the director's films. Yet the book should also satisfy scholars by providing an updated anthology representing the rich variety of critical responses that Hitchcock's films have evoked over the years." "This new edition of A Hitchcock Reader aims to preserve what has been so satisfying - and successful - in the first edition. This new edition, however, will update scholarship since publication of the first edition; offer entirely new editorial matter, including a general introduction to the volume; more visuals; and comprehensive bibliographies of suggested readings, references, and works cited."--BOOK JACKET Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781405155564 Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- Part One: Taking Hitchcock Seriously [Section Intro and Bibliography] -- 1.

Each interview follows the same general format: an extensive autobiographical sketch, the 'big break, or how I got into Hollywood', followed by the techniques and problems, the tricks and plain hard work, that go into the making of movies. The interviews are loaded with humour, bitter feuds, and personal anecdotes of the great and near great." (Taken from back cover) ISBN: 39911162X Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006

Many scholars have linked the origins of the discipline to late-1960s developments in the academy such as structuralist theory and student protest. Yet this collection reveals the broader material and institutional forces—both inside and outside of the university—that have long shaped the field. Beginning with the first investigations of cinema in the early twentieth century, this volume provides detailed examinations of the varied social, political, and intellectual milieus in which knowledge of cinema has been generated. The contributors explain how multiple instantiations of film study have had a tremendous influence on the methodologies, curricula, modes of publication, and professional organizations that now constitute the university-based discipline. Extending the historical insights into the present, contributors also consider the directions film study might take in changing technological and cultural environments. -- Publisher description Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9780822342892 Contents: The Academy and Motion Pictures / Lee Grieveson, Haidee Wasson
