Edited by the distinguished filmmaker and historian Lewis Jacobs, the book has become an indispensable reference for both students and practitioners of documentary. This new edition brings The Documentary Tradition up to date and includes the writings of almost 100 filmmakers and critics. To the five parts which trace the development of the genre from the 1920s Jacobs has added a new section of seven essays on the documentaries of the 1970s. The section is introduced by his own survey of the filmmaking of the period, "From Political Activism to Women's Consciousness," and accompanied by a selected list of documentaries of the 1970s together with photographs from a number of these films. The bibliography of works on documentary films and filmmakers has been expanded." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 577-579ISBN: 0393950425LON: 1437994URL status: URL: 'http://-'

She is reputed to have danced nude for the Fuhrer. She is linked to Goebbels, Striecher, Borman, and other evil luminaries of the Nazi party. After the war, she was investigated by the Nuremburg Commission, and found innocent; she had never been a Party member. Yet Leni's cinema helped to create the myth of Nazi supremacy; her sense of drama and destiny, her imagery, mesmerized Germany during Hitler's climb to power. Was she responsible? Was she conscious of the political meaning of her work? Or was she a naive opportunist, an incomparable technician, exploiting the chance of a lifetime? Was she Hitler's mistress, as has been alleged? Or was she just a free spirit, the pagan sensualist of her own films? These are only some of the intriguing questions Glenn B. Infield explores in Leni Riefenstahl: The Fallen Film Goddess." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 262-267ISBN: 0690011679LON: 76007084; 760131

IVANOVO DETSTVO ; FOREIGN AFFAIR, A (US, Billy Wilder, 1948) ; OLYMPIA (G, Leni Riefenstahl, 1938) Summary: Berlin's unique history of conflict, transmutation and violence has created an arena of extraordinary urban surfaces, from which the present-day city and its layered, wounded past are projected simultaneously. THE WALLS OF BERLIN explores the intimate connections between those surfaces and the works of art and film which have both incised Berlin's urban screens and been inspired by them.
Drawing on a vast range of material – from the first films of Berlin in the 1890s to the city's impact on contemporary digital art – THE WALLS OF BERLIN probes many of Berlin's overlooked but most illuminating spaces inflected by art and film: the Hansa recording-studios, the Buch asylum, ruined hotels and cinemas, and Berlin's immense slaughterhouse sub-city.
It is essential reading for those engaged with the transformations of contemporary cities, and students of urban-history, architecture, art and film.ISBN: 9780982046463Contents: The Baltic Wall -- The Skladanowsky Projector -- WALLS OF BERLIN -- Berlin-by-the-Sea -- A `Wall' of Berlin -- Images
