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 siteISBN: 9780762470938

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

Call No: 761 WINAuthor: Winston, Brian ; Vanstone, Gail ; Chi, Wang Source: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: Bloomsbury AcademicPubDate: 2017PhysDes: xii ; 271 pages : illustrations ; 23 cmSubject: 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.

Activist film festivals : towards a political subject / Sonia Tascon and Tyson Wils [editors] Bristol, U.K. ; Chicago, USA: Intellect Books, 2017.

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 siteISBN: 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. --

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 BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 226-238) and indexISBN: 041516737X (hbk); 0415167388 (pbk); 041516737X (hardcover : alk. paper); 0415167388 (pbk : alk. paper)LON: 14255526Contents: 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?

Affective authorship : contemporary Asian Australian documentary in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.2 p.157-170
Author: Smaill, Belinda PhysDes: ArticleSubject: 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. -- AbstractNotes: Part of Special Issue: Transnational Asian Australian Cinema.

After taste : cultural value and the moving image / edited by Julia Vassilieva and Constantine Verevis Abingdon: Routledge, 2012.
Call No: 62(04) AFTSource: KPlace: AbingdonPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 2012PhysDes: 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.

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.

'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."

The resulting portrait reveals a quixotic man whose films continue to delight and challenge audiences, both in the United States and beyond.Notes: Includes index and bibliographyISBN: 0571220894

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.

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 siteISBN: 9780814349359Donation: Senses of Cinema

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.Notes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references (p.

This study is divided into two parts and locates the (postmodern) Gothic in twelve Australian/New Zealand films ranging from Ted Kotcheffs Wake in Fright (1971) to Peter Jacksons Heavenly Creatures (1994). Part one theorizes the Gothic as a subversive cultural mode that foreshadows postmodernism in terms of its antithetical relationship with Enlightenment ideals. Interconnections are made between proto-postmodern aspects of early Gothic literature and the appropriation and intensification of these aspects in what has been dubbed the postmodern Gothic. The dissertation then argues that the Antipodes was/is constructed through Euro-centric discourse(s) as a Gothic/(proto)-postmodern space or place, this construction manifest in, and becoming intertwined with the postmodern in post 1970s Antipodean cinema. In part two, a cross-section of Australian/New Zealand films is organized into cinematic sub-genres in line with their similar thematic preoccupations and settings, all films argued as reflecting a marked postmodern Gothic sensibility. In its conclusion, the study finds that S2Antipodean Gothic cinemaS3, particularly since the 1970s, can be strongly characterized by its combining of Gothic/postmodernist modes of representation, this convergence constitutive of a postmodernized version of the Gothic which is heavily influenced by Euro-centric constructions of the Antipodes in Gothic/(proto)-postmodern related terms.

Organized in four main parts, "Mass Culture: Apocalypse Postponed," "Mass Media and the Limits of Communication," "The Rise and Fall of Counter-Cultures," and "In Search of Italian Genius," Eco looks at a variety of topics and cultural productions, including the world of Charlie Brown, distinctions between highbrow and lowbrow, the future of literacy, Chinese comic strips, whether countercultures exist, Fellini's Ginger and Fred, and the Italian genius industryNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 0851704468 (pbk.); 0253318513 (U.S. : cloth); 0851704182 (cloth)LON: 10612725

ASIA Summary: "This book explores the range and dynamism of contemporary Asian cinemas, covering East Asia (China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan), Southeast Asia (Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia), South Asia (Bollywood), and West Asia (Iran), in order to discover what is common about them and to engender a theory or concept of "Asian Cinema". It goes beyond existing work which provides a field survey of Asian cinema, probing more deeply into the field of Asian Cinema, arguing that Asian Cinema constitutes a separate pedagogical subject, and putting forward an alternative cinematic paradigm. The book covers "styles", including the works of classical Asian Cinema masters, and specific genres such as horror films, and Bollywood and Anime, two very popular modes of Asian Cinema; "spaces", including artistic use of space and perspective in Chinese cinema, geographic and personal space in Iranian cinema, the private "erotic space" of films from South Korea and Thailand, and the persistence of the family unit in the urban spaces of Asian big cities in many Asian films; and "concepts" such as Pan-Asianism, Orientalism, Nationalism and Third Cinema. The rise of Asian nations on the world stage has been coupled with a growing interest, both inside and outside Asia, of Asian culture, of which film is increasingly an indispensable component--this book provides a rich, insightful overview of what exactly constitutes Asian Cinema." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographic references and index; Includes filmographyISBN: 9781138815780Contents: pt.

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 siteISBN: 9780231185899Contents: Foreword (1994), by Walter Murch -- Preface -- Part I.

The principal argument of this thesis is that proponents of auteurism have privileged examination of the visual components in a film-makers' body of work, neglecting the potentially significant role played by sound.
The thesis seeks to address this problematic imbalance by interrogating the creative use of sound in the films written and directed Rolf de Heer, asking the question, "Does his use of sound make Rolf de Heer and aural auteur?" In so far as the term 'aural' encompasses everything in the film that is heard by the audience, the analysis seeks to discover if de Heer has, as Peter Wollen suggests of the auteur and her or his directing of the visual components (1968, 1972 and 1998), unconsciously left a detectable aural signature on his films.
The thesis delivers an innovative outcome by demonstrating that auteur analysis that goes beyond the mise-en-scene (i.e. visuals) is productive and worthwhile as an interpretative response to film. De Heer's use of the aural point of view and binaural sound recording, his interest in providing a 'voice' for marginalised people, his self-penned song lyrics, his close and early collaboration with composer Graham Tardif and sound desinger Jim Currie, his 'hands-on' approach to sound recording and sound editing and his predilection for making films about sound are all shown to be examples of de Heer's aural auteurism.
As well as the three published (or accepted for publication) interviews with de Heer, Tardif and Currie, the dissertation consists of seven papers refereed and published (or accepted for publication) in journals and internatiional conference proceedings, a literature review and a unifying essay. The papers presented are close textual analyses of de Heer's films which, when considered as a whole, support the thesis' overall argument and serve as comprehensive auteur analysis, the first such sustained study of his work, and the first with an emphasis on the aural.

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 siteISBN: 9781501390029Contents: Acknowledgements -- Dedication -- In Memory Of -- Introduction -- 1.

This book examines a wide range of Australian films to trace their Gothic resemblances, characteristics and meanings. By concentrating on the occurrence of Gothic motifs, characters, landscapes and narratives, it argues for the recognition and relevance of a coherent Gothic heritage in Australian film. A plethora of Gothic representatives are considered in relation to four consistent and illuminating continuities (images of the family, ideas of monstrosity, generic hybridity and the occurrence of the sublime), and this study debates the appearance and asserts the significance of Australian Gothic films within their national, cultural, literary and cinematic traditions. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781786838896Contents: List of illustrations -- Introduction -- Familiarity -- Monstrosity -- Hybridity -- Sublimity -- Conclusion -- Filmography -- Bibliography -- Index

Titles covered were released between 1973 and 2010, a period coinciding with the revival of the long-dormant Australian film industry in the early 1970s, and continuing into the second wave of genre production spurred by the international success of the 2005 chiller Wolf Creek, The Cars That Ate Paris, The Last Wave, Roadgames, Razorback, Outback Vampires, Queen of the Damned, Black Water, and The Reef are among the titles represented. Each film is covered in a chapter that includes a cast and credits list, release information, contemporary reviews and DVD availability, as well as a synopsis and in-depth notes about the story, filmmaking techniques, acting performances, recurring themes and motifs, and overall effectiveness of the film as a work of horror.

AUSTRALIA ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000) ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000-) Summary: "This thesis examines changes which have occurrred since the late 1980s and early 1990s with respect to the representation of cultural diversity on Australian popular drama programming. The thesis finds that a significant number of actors of diverse cultural and linguistic background have negotiated the television industry employment process to obtain acting roles in a lead capacity. The majority of these actors are from the second generation of immigrants, who increasingly make up a significant component of Australia's multicultural population. The way in which these actors are portrayed on-screen has also shifted from one of a 'performed' ethnicity, to an 'everyday' portrayal. The thesis develops an analysis which connects the development and broad political support for multicultural policy as expressed in the National Agenda for a Multicultural Australia to the changes in both employment and representation practices in popular television programming in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The thesis addresses multicultural debates by arguing for a mainstreaming position. The thesis makes detailed comparison of cultural diversity and television in the jurisdictions of the United States, the United Kingdom and New Zealand to support the broad argument that cultural diversity policy measures produce observable outcomes in television programming." -- ABSTRACTNotes: Presented to the Creative Industries Faculty, Queensland University of Technology; Thesis (Ph.D.)--Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, 2004.

AUSTRALIA Summary: "Australia's leisure culture is legendary, and as millions of British viewers of Neighbours, fans of Yothu Yindi or drinkers of Castlemaine XXXX would attest, Australian popular culture is popular outside of Australia. Australian Popular Culture is an exciting collection of essays bringing together new perspectives on the nature and meaning of a nation's changing life. The collection also explores the idea of popular culture at large. Leading authors represent a range of approaches, backgrounds and fields to explore subjects of wide interest within the categories of 'the everyday', 'the mass media' and 'critical theory'. Chapters are devoted to the Aussie Back Yard; Vegemite; postage stamps; Australian Rules football; the introduction of television; Crocodile Dundee; The Lindy Chamberlain Affair; Spycatcher; Domesticity, leisure and love and Postmodernism and Australian Culture." -Publisher description.Notes: 2 folded leaves inserted into back of book, entitled "Australian historical studies, style sheet for book reviewers"; Some text highlighted pages 66-76ISBN: 0521466679Contents: Introduction -- Part I.

Call No: 730.2 BISAuthor: Perkins, Claire ; Verevis, Constantine Source: USPlace: Albany, New YorkPublisher: State University of New York PressPubDate: c2014PhysDes: xi, 262 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSubject: AESTHETICS ; AUTHORSHIP ; B-MOVIES ; CULT FILMS ; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA ; EXPLOITATION FILMS ; POLITICS AND THE CINEMA ; SUBTITLES ; CANDY (AT, Neil Armfield, 2005) ; EVIL DEAD, THE (US, Sam Raimi, 1982 [prod. 1980]) ; MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964) Summary: B Is For Bad Cinema continues and extends, but does not limit itself to, the trends in film scholarship that have made cult and exploitation films and other "low" genres increasingly acceptable objects for critical analysis. Springing from discussions of taste and value in film, these original essays mark out the broad contours of "bad" - that is, aesthetically, morally, or commercially disreputable - cinema. While some of the essays share a kinship with recent discussions of B movies and cult films, they do not describe a single aesthetic category or represent a single methodology or critical agenda, but variously approach badcinema in terms of aesthetics, politics and cultural value. The volume covers a range of issues, from the aesthetic and industrial mechanics of low-budget production through the terrain of audience responses and cinematic effect, and onto the broader moral and ethical implications of the material. As a result, B Is For Bad Cinema takes an interest in a variety of film examples - overblown Hollywood blockbusters, faux pornographic works, and European art house films - to consider those that lurk on the boundaries of acceptability." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781438449951Contents: Introduction: B for bad cinema / Claire Perkins and Constantine Verevis; Part 1: Aesthetics -- Explosive apathy / Jeffrey Sconce -- B-grade subtitles / Tessa Dwyer -- Being in two places at the same time: the forgotten geography of rear-projection / Adrian Danks -- Redeeming cruising: tendentiously offensive, coherently incoherent, strangely pleasurable / R.

"On 7 April 1998, security guards moved onto Patrick Stevedores docks around Australia and ordered the waterfront workers to stand down immediately. What followed this unprecedented attack on the Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) was an industrial dispute that developed into a campaign for the hearts and minds of all Australians. 'Bastard Boys' tells the story of the fight that stopped the nation.
"A political thriller, war film, buddy movie, love story and courtroom drama all rolled into one, 'Bastard Boys' follows the lives of the key players in one of the most significant events in Australia's recent past.
"Written by Sue Smith ('Brides of Christ', 'The Leaving of Liverpool', 'My Brother Jack', 'The Road from Coorain') and directed by Ray Quint ('The Secret Life of Us', 'McLeod's Daughters', 'Blue Heelers'), 'Bastard Boys' screened on ABC TV in 2007."

AUSTRALIA ; SENTIMENTAL BLOKE, THE (AT, Raymond Longford, 1919) ; NIGHT THE PROWLER, THE (AT, Jim Sharman, 1978) Summary: Almost from the inception of movies, the Buckley family were involved, so it was natural for the young Tony Buckley to get a job at a film laboratory, and move into film editing. Despite being warned by a veteran of film, "There's no future in it", Buckley began a career that was to involve a cast of thousands including Australian film pioneers, Raymond Longford and Ken G. Hall, Australian and international stars, and the pick of the Australian film and television industry. As an acclaimed editor, then producer, Tony Buckley's films have attracted numerous accolades and awards. In Behind a Velvet Light Trap, Buckley chronicles the frequent disasters on the set and the antics of actors and film crew with wry humour and a firm sense of professionalism. It is an insider's view of Australian movies and television where we get to meet some of the vivid personalities including Rudolf Nureyev, Michael Powell, Patrick White, James Mason, Ruth Park, Leo McKern and Joan Sutherland. --BOOK JACKETISBN: 9781740667906Contents: -- Preface -- Acknowledgement -- PART ONE -- 1 -- Saturdays At The Sesqui -- 2 --The Sentimental Bloke - Meeting Raymond Longford -- 3 -- Discovering 'The Hidden Power' -- 4 -- The Voice Of Australia -- 5 -- 'There's No Future In It, Son!' -- 6 -- Seven Miles From Sydney And 10,000 Miles From Care -- 7 -- Letters Home: 189 Cromwell Road - 'Hurry, My Milliner Is Waiting!' -- 8 -- Five For Europe: A Telegram From Home -- 9 -- Another Cinesound Excusive! -- 10 -- Forgotten Cinema And The Australian Renaissance -- 11-- Michael Powell and S.Y.M -- 12 -- Home to Avening -- 13 -- 'The Locomotive that Drives Everything Else -- 14 -- Mercer Clips and Hollywood -- 15 -- Le Reveil Dans La Terreur - Wake in Fright -- 16 -- Ballet in the Bedroom -- 17 -- Insular Fairyland - anyone for Croquet? -- 18 -- ...'You wanna make a film about a woman???!!' -- 19 -- My Sons, My Horses - The Anatomy of a Motion Picture -- 20 -- 'This Bizarre Work' - The Night of the Prowler -- 21 -- The very strange case of the Unknown Industrial Prisoner -- 22 -- Not In The Public Interest - the Juanita Factor -- 23 -- Flight Ten From Honolulu - A complete Change Of Direction -- 24 -- A Landmark Australian Film -- PART TWO -- 25 -- ...And Now For Something Completely Different - Television! -- 26 -- The Tree Of Humankind - Man On A Limb! -- 27 -- The Heroes Of The Miniseries -- 28 -- Prostitution - Adapting Bryce Courtenay - And The Mysterious Case Of The Stolen Logie -- PART THREE -- 29 -- Back To The Reel World -- 30 -- On Their Selection - The $24,000 Lunch! -- 31 -- A Celebration - Then Shadows Fall -- 32 -- 'That Resilient Little Beast' - But Not Quite A Heart Stopper! -- 33 -- An Apple For The Teacher - Food for thought -- 34 -- Shattered Dreams - Broken Promises -- The Final Reel - The Full Circle

GERMANY ; POLITICS IN THE CINEMA ; RUN LOLA RUN (G, Tom Tykwer, 1998) Summary: "In Berlin Replayed, Brigitta B. Wagner traces how old and new films set in Berlin created a collective urban nostalgia for the city's best and most conciliatory pasts in the face of its renewed prupose as the all-German capital. Exploring films such as Walter Ruttmann's Berlin: Symphony of a Great City, Wim Wenders's wings of Desire, Tom Tykwer's Run Lola Run, and Wolfgang Becker's Good Bye, Lenin!, the book illustrates how film has repeatedly remade the image of the city. Wagner focuses on four key periods: the golden 1920s, when the city was a major filmmaking center; the prewall 1950s, when Berlin had two idealogically opposed film industries; the politically transformative late 1980s and early 1990s; and the hyped start of the twenty-first century." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780816691746Donation: donated by Senses of CinemaContents: Introduction: Auf wiedersehen, Berlin! -- Remake: Berlin symphonies and the myth of the weltstadt -- Generation: a 1950s place for us -- Virtuality: cinema, archive, and the interactive map of Potsdamer Platz -- Orientation: geographical didacticism and the X-films of new Berlin -- Epilogue: Berlin returns, again

Beyond the bottom line : the producer in film and television studies / edited by Andrew Spicer, A.T. McKenna and Christopher Meir. New York: Bloomsbury, c2014.
Call No: 67(04) BEYSource: USPlace: New YorkPublisher: BloomsburyPubDate: c2014PhysDes: xiii, 289 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.Subject: PRODUCERS Summary: This is the first collection of original critical essays devoted to exploring the misunderstood, neglected and frequently caricatured role played by the film producer. The editors' introduction provides a conceptual and methodological overview, arguing that the producer's complex and multifaceted role is crucial to a film's success or failure. The collection is divided into three sections where detailed individual essays explore a broad range of contrasting producers working in different historical, geographical, generic and industrial contexts. Rather than suggest there is a single type of producer, the collection analyses the rich variety of roles producers play, providing fascinating and informative insights into how the film industry actually works. This groundbreaking collection challenges several of the conventional orthodoxies of film studies, providing a new approach that will become required reading for scholars and students. --back of the bookNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781441172365Contents: Machine generated contents note: 1.Introduction / Christopher Meir -- pt.

This is the first full-length study of how contemporary entertainment technologies and media - from cable television and VHS to DVD and the Internet - shape our encounters with the movies and affect the aesthetic, cultural, and ideological definitions of cinema. Barbara Klinger explores topics such as home theater, film collecting, classic Hollywood movie reruns, repeat viewings, and Internet film parodies, providing a multifaceted view of the presentation and reception of films in U.S. households. Balancing industry history with theoretical and cultural analysis, she finds that today's cinema's powerful social presence cannot be fully grasped without considering its prolific recycling in post-theatrical venues - especially the home."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 281-287) and indexISBN: 9780520245860Contents: The new media aristocrats: home theater and the film experience -- The contemporary cinephile: film collecting after the VCR -- Remembrance of films past: cable television and classic Hollywood cinema -- Once is not enough: the functions and pleasures of repeat viewings -- To infinity and beyond: the Web short, parody, and remediation -- Conclusion: of fortresses and film cultures

His credits include the stage production of The Rocky Horror Show, which he later directed for 20th Century Fox. He has worked in Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States, and his other credits include the musicals Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar. His stage work has encompassed more than seventy productions, including opera (Don Giovanni, Voss, Death in Venice), classics (Shakespeare, Strindberg, Wedekind, Brecht) and much of the stage and screen work of Nobel Laureate Patrick White. In Blood & Tinsel, Jim Sharman takes us on an epic personal journey from his colourful childhood in his father's boxing troupe to Tokyo, London, Berlin and Sydney via the international successes of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar. Whether recounting conversations with Lou Reed, giving us the inside story about Rocky Horror or describing a fateful meeting with Patrick White, Jim Sharman casts a brilliant story of the people and events that have shaped the times. Blood & Tinsel ranges from the rough and ready world of outback Australia in the fi fties, where boxers and panto dames shared the stage, to the cultural explosions in which Sharman played a part. Blood & Tinsel is a remarkable story about Australia. It is also a moving tribute to a family legendary in the entertainment stakes."--BOOK COVERISBN: 9780522853773

AUSTRALIA Summary: "The life and works of 'Aunty', the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, continue to be the subject of public debate and often heated controversy, but they are seldom analysed in any depth. In this book Glyn Davis sets out to take the ABC apart, layer by layer, to reveal the contradictions in purpose and form which bedevil Australia's public broadcasting network. Emphasising the interplay between the ABC and its social and political context, Breaking Up the ABC subjects the recent internal reforms to careful scrutiny. Will these reforms end 'Aunty's' perennial difficulties? Or is the organisation doomed to permanent crisis? Can the corporation, as David Hill hopes, win back an audience and the political support crucial to its continuing existence? Having broken up the institution, how should the pieces be rearranged? This book offers new combinations to ensure the continuing viability of public broadcasting in Australia."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes list of abbreviations, bibliographic references and index -- cover illustration and design by John WindusISBN: 0043370047Donation: Donated by Mike Counihan

AUSTRALIA Summary: "This is an explosive look at the recent tumultuous years in the boardrooms and on the studio floors of Australian television. As the Nine and Seven networks traded blows, new technologies emerged and old personalities and management clung on for dear life, everyone fastened their seatbelts for a bumpy ride. From booze buses to ambulance chasing, mirrorballs to hotplates, from Sunrise to Today, Broadcast Wars gives us a fascinating insight into major media events, boardroom stoushes and fading stars' diva-like demands. Michael Bodey fearlessly analyses the personalities we love (and love to hate), the genres that came and went, and the machinations behind MasterChef, Dancing With The Stars, Underbelly, Packed To The Rafters and all the shows we love to watch and talk about. Broadcast Wars exposes the egos, the money and the powre manipulating our remote controls.

João Nemi Neto argues for Brazilian cinema studies to acknowledge the importance of 1920s modernism and of antropografia, a conceptual mode of cannibalism, to adopt and extrapolate a perverse form of absorption and raise the stakes on queer theory and postcolonialism, and to demonstrate how they are crucial to the development of a queer tradition in Brazilian cinema.
In five chapters and two "trailers," Nemi Neto understands the term "queer" through its political dimensions because the films he analyzes represent characters that conform neither to American coming-out politics nor to Brazilian identity politics. Nonetheless, the films are queer precisely because the queer experiences and affection explored in these films do not necessarily insist on identifying characters as a particular sexuality or gender identity. Therefore, attention to characters within a unique cinematic world raises the stakes on several issues that hinge on cinematic form, narrative, and representation. Nemi Neto interviews and examines the work of Joao Silverio Trevisan and provides readings of films such as AIDS o furor do sexo explícito (AIDS the Furor of Explicit Sex, 1986), and Dzi Croquetes (Dzi Croquetes, 2009) to theorize a productive overlap between queer and antropofagia. Moreover, the films analyzed here depict queer alternative representations to both homonormativity and heteronormativity as forms of resistance, at the same time as prejudice and heteronormativity remain present in contemporary Brazilian social practices.
Graduate students and scholars of cinema and media studies, queer studies, Brazilian modernism, and Latin American studies will value what one early reader called "a point of departure for all future research on Brazilian queer cinema." -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814346105Donation: Senses of Cinema

(some col.), ports, plans ; 22 cm x 28 cmSubject: ART AND THE CINEMA ; DOCUMENTARIES ; PRE-CINEMA HISTORY ; AUSTRALIA ; NEW ZEALAND ; ENTERTAINMENT. AUSTRALIA Summary: "Long before cinema was invented, people went to picture shows. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in Britain, Europe and America they were treated to dramatic pictorial spectacles. Audiences might be encircled by vast 360-degree canvases, or seated before continuous images drawn across a proscenium, or gathered in amusement parks to watch painted 3-D structures come 'alive' with the explosion of fireworks overhead. The sense of realism was enhanced by back-lighting, running commentaries and props such as real sand and trees. These spectacular representations of scenery, current events or recent battles abroad were indeed documentaries on canvas-the first travelogues. The phenomenon of complex circular panoramas and dioramas took root in Australia and New Zealand in the 1850s. They drew enthusiastic crowds, brought good work for local artists, and propogated the glories of empire in all the capital cities they toured. Canvas Documentaries captures the artistic, civic and social preoccupations of the times. Generously illustrated with paintings, etchings, engravings, mechanical drawings, architectural plans, photographs and advertising material, this beautiful book is a window on the vibrant popular culture of the Victorian era.

Chilean cinema in the twenty-first century world / edited by Vania Barraza and Carl Fischer Detroit, Michigan: Wayne State University Press, 2020.
Call No: 11439Author: Barraza, Vania ; Fishcher, Carl Place: Detroit, MichiganPublisher: Wayne State University PressPubDate: 2020PhysDes: xii,376 pages : ilustrated ; 23cmSeries: Contemporary approaches to film and mediaSubject: CHILE ; FESTIVALS ; HORROR FILMS ; POLITICS AND THE CINEMA Summary: Focusing on films from Chile since 2000 and bringing together scholars from South and North America, Chilean Cinema in the Twenty-First-Century World is the first English-language book since the 1970s to explore this small, yet significant, Latin American cinema. The volume questions the concept of "national cinemas" by examining how Chilean film dialogues with trends in genre-based, political, and art-house cinema around the world, while remaining true to local identities. Contributors place current Chilean cinema in a historical context and expand the debate concerning the artistic representation of recent political and economic transformations in contemporary Chile. Chilean Cinema in the Twenty-First-Century World opens up points of comparison between Chile and the ways in which other national cinemas are negotiating their place on the world stage.
The book is divided into five parts. "Mapping Theories of Chilean Cinema in the World" examines Chilean filmmakers at international film festivals, and political and affective shifts in the contemporary Chilean documentary. "On the Margins of Hollywood: Chilean Genre Flicks" explores on the emergence of Chilean horror cinema and the performance of martial arts in Chilean films. "Other Texts and Other Lands: Intermediality and Adaptation Beyond Chile(an Cinema)" covers the intermedial transfer from Chilean literature to transnational film and from music video to film. "Migrations of Gender and Genre" contrasts films depicting transgender people in Chile and beyond. "Politicized Intimacies, Transnational Affects: Debating (Post)memory and History" analyzes representations of Chile’s traumatic past in contemporary documentary and approaches mourning as a politicized act in postdictatorship cultural production.
Intended for scholars, students, and researchers of film and Latin American studies, Chilean Cinema in the Twenty-First-Century World evaluates an active and emergent film movement that has yet to receive sufficient attention in global cinema studies. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814346822

EUROPEAN COUNTRIES ; UNITED KINGDOM : SCOTLAND ; INDONESIA ; POLAND ; TURKEY ; INDIA ; GERMANY ; STATE AND THE CINEMA ; CAPRA, FRANK Summary: Leading film scholars, philosophers and sociologists consider the ways in which film production and reception are shaped by ideas of national identity and belonging. The contributors discuss a wide range of cinemas, in Europe, Asia and the Americas, exploring the relationship between nation states for both the concept and the reality of national cinema.
In the book’s first three sections, contributors explore sociological approaches to national identity, challenge established ideas about ‘national cinema’, and consider the ways in which national states – from the former Soviet Union to Contemporary Scotland – use cinema in their efforts to create a national cinema, and consider how images of the nation are understood by audiences both at home and abroad.

In this discerning new approach to cinema studies, Angela Dalle Vacche discusses how the use of pictorial sources in film enables eight filmmakers to comment on the interplay between the arts, on the dialectic of word and image, on the relationship between artistic creativity and sexual difference, and on the tension between tradition and modernity." - taken from back cover.Notes: Includes index -- Includes bibliographical references (p.

Many studios, in a range of locations, now have the size and sophistication to service large-budget feature film production. This comprehensive study of contemporary international studio considers the circumstances in which this rash of studio complex building and renovating has occurred – in places as diverse as Rome, London, Berlin, Prague, Vancouver, Toronto, Sydney, the Gold Coast and Melbourne. Central to the study is an understanding of studio complexes as cinema and media cities providing not only sound stages but a full range of production and post-production services in the one location. Cinema Cities, Media Cities is the first published analysis of this new international studio system, its origins, its business and its policy contexts. [Taken from back cover.]ISBN: 0958015279

Newly revised and expanded to take the latest developments into account, Cinema in the Digital Age examines the fate of cinema in the wake of the digital revolution. Nicholas Rombes considers Festen (1998), The Blair Witch Project (1999), Timecode (2000), Russian Ark (2002), and The Ring (2002), among others. Haunted by their analogue pasts, these films are interested not in digital purity but rather in imperfection and mistakes-blurry or pixilated images, shaky camera work, and other elements that remind viewers of the human behind the camera.With a new introduction and new material, this updated edition takes a fresh look at the historical and contemporary state of digital cinema. It pays special attention to the ways in which nostalgia for the look and feel of analogue disrupts the aesthetics of the digital image, as well as how recent films such as The Social Network (2010) and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)-both shot digitally-have disguised and erased their digital foundations. The book also explores new possibilities for writing about and theorizing film, such as randomization.Notes: Includes bibliographical references.ISBN: 9780231167550Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Machine generated contents note: 1.Accelerationism

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.

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

Virile men (pelados and charros), virtuous prostitutes as mother figures, and minstrel-like gay men were held out as desired and/ or abject models not only in governmental rhetoric and propaganda, but also in literature and popular culture, particularly in the cinema. Indeed, cinema provided an especially effective staging ground for the construction of a gendered and sexualized national identity. In this book, Sergio de la Mora offers the first extended analysis of how Mexican cinema has represented masculinities and sexualities and their relationship to national identity from 1950 to 2004. He focuses on three traditional genres (the revolutionary melodrama, the cabaretera [dancehall] prostitution melodrama, and the musical comedy "buddy movie") and one subgenre (the fichera brothel-cabaret comedy) of classic and contemporary cinema. By concentrating on the changing conventions of these genres, de la Mora reveals how Mexican films have both supported and subverted traditional heterosexual norms of Mexican national identity. In particular, his analyses of Mexican cinematic icons Pedro Infante and Gael Garciacute;a Bernal and of Arturo Ripstein's cult film El lugar sin liacute;mites illuminate cinema's role in fostering distinct figurations of masculinity, queer spectatorship, and gay male representations. De la Mora completes this exciting interdisciplinary study with an in-depth look at how the Mexican state brought about structural changes in the film industry between 1989 and 1994 through the work of the Mexican Film Institute (IMCINE), paving the way for a renaissance in the national cinema." - taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 197-226) and index -- Lambda Literary Awards (nominated), 2007. -- Formerly CIP.ISBN: 9780292712973Contents: Preface: How I too came to love Pedro Infante – Acknowledgments -- Introduction: Macho Nation? -- Midnight virgin": melodramas of prostitution in literature and film -- Pedro Infante unveiled: masculinities in the Mexican "buddy movie" -- The last dance: (homo)sexuality and representation in Arturo Ripstein's El lugar sin limites and the fichera subgenre -- Mexico's third-wave new cinema and the cultural politics of film -- Epilogue.

Portraits and Polemics presents debate as an important form of cinematic encounter whether one argues with filmmakers themselves, on behalf of their work, or with one's self.
Rosenbaum takes on filmmakers like Chantal Akerman, Richard Linklater, Manoel De Oliveira, Mark Rappaport, Elaine May, and Béla Tarr. He also engages, implicitly and explicitly, with other writers, arguing with Pauline Kael—and Wikipedia—over Jacques Demy, with the Hollywood Reporter and Variety reviewers of Jarmusch’s The Limits of Control, with David Thomson about James L. Brooks, and with many American and English film critics about misrepresented figures from Jerry Lewis to Yasujiro Ozu to Orson Welles. Throughout, Rosenbaum mines insights, pursues pet notions, and invites readers to join the fray. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780252084386Contents: Introduction: In Defense of Polemical Criticism -- 1.

A MA SOEUR ; BREILLAT, CATHERINE ; BRESSON, ROBERT Summary: Whether embodied in literature, theater, or film, an enduring theme of many artistic works has been the protagonist’s search for identity. Such quests are typically psychological or spiritual journeys and depicted on the screen in a variety of manifestations—endeavors embarked upon to address an emotional trauma or to overcome an obstacle in the hero’s life. Using Jean Cocteau’s La Belle et La Bête as a leitmotif, these pursuits are discussed by author Maria Garcia as encounters with the “Beast.” At the end of their quests, heroes are reborn into their new identities, while the Beast disappears, transforms, or dies.
In Cinematic Quests for Identity: The Hero’s Encounter with the Beast, Garcia examines the cinematic conventions of the male and female search for individuation across several genres. After discussing La Belle et La Bête, the author looks at a number of films including three iconic male journeys—The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Searchers, and The Deer Hunter. Additional chapters focus on The Silence of the Lambs, Bringing Up Baby, The Lady Eve, The Secret of Roan Inish, The Natural, and Moneyball. The book concludes with a consideration of the three fairy tale films by Catherine Breillat—Fat Girl, Bluebeard, and The Sleeping Beauty—and the female characters in several Robert Bresson films, including The Trial of Joan of Arc.
Providing a unique and original perspective on films throughout the world, this provocative book draws upon Jungian thought, as well as several literary traditions including fairy tales, epic poetry, and Greek and Celtic mythology. Aimed at scholars of film and film theory, Cinematic Quests for Identity will also appeal to movie fans interested in a deeper understanding of films that explore a character’s struggle to live a conscious life. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781442246973

"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.Notes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 0415700493Contents: -- about the author -- preface -- Introduction : the cinematic city and the quest for the modern -- 1.

Analyses what makes an acting performance excellent, through a range of examples from world cinema. What actors do on-screen is a fascination for audiences all over the world. Indeed, the cultural visibility of movie stars is so pronounced that stardom has often been regarded as intrinsic to the medium's specificity. Yet not all great cinematic performances are star turns, and so, what really makes a cinematic performance good, interesting, or important has been a neglected topic in film criticism. This two-volume set presents detailed interpretations of singular performances by several of the most compelling actors in cinema history, asking in many different and complementary ways what makes performance meaningful, how it reflects a director's style, as well as how it contributes to the development of national cinemas and cultures. Whether noting the precise ways actors shape film narrative, achieve emotional effect, or move toward political subversion, the essays in these books innovate new approaches to studying screen performance as an art form and cultural force"--Page 4 of cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781474417006Contents: Intro -- Acknowledgments -- Close-up: great American performances -- Chapter 1 Ethel Waters in The Member of the Wedding -- Chapter 2 Irene Dunne in The Awful Truth -- Chapter 3 Cary Grant in His Girl Friday -- Chapter 4 Janet Gaynor in Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans -- Chapter 5 Katharine Hepburn in The Lion in Winter -- Chapter 6 Bette Davis in Dangerous -- Chapter 7 James Stewart in Vertigo -- Chapter 8 Carole Lombard in To Be or Not to Be -- Chapter 9 James Mason in Lolita -- Chapter 10 Montgomery Clift in A Place in the Sun -- Chapter 11 Tony Curtis in Sweet Smell of Success.

It revises and updates my PhD thesis, which was submitted at the University of Queensland in 1981. As far as possible the discussion is non-technical, and plain English has been used instead of economic jargon. The study is contained, however, within a theoretical framework which defines the nature of the economic analysis of the Australian media industries and which provides the basis for the examination of policy issues.Notes: Includes indexISBN: 0702218391Contents: 1.

It reworks Pasolini's landmark concept of 'the cinema of poetry' to look at the transformation of film form in its encounter with society, the sacred, the subjective and the presence of the camera. In the 1970s, the influential forms of a cinema of poetry are analysed in key features by Altman, Herzog, Malick, Scorsese, Weir, Von Trotta and Tarkovsky while in the 1980s and 1990s the emergence of new filmmakers has meant a diffusion of different cinemas of poetry using new techniques and new poetries. Of key importance here is the work of Kieslowski, Lynch, Egoyan, Campion, Greenaway, Zhang Yimou, Tran Anh Hung and Wong Kar-Wai, as well as the reinvention of science fiction and film noir in American genre."

Contemporary Italian filmmaking : strategies of subversion : Pirandello, Fellini, Scola, and the directors of the new generation / Manuela Gieri Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1995.
Call No: 71(45) GIEAuthor: Gieri, Manuela Place: TorontoPublisher: University of Toronto PressPubDate: 1995PhysDes: x, 301 p. : ill. ; 23 cmSubject: Pirandello, Luigi, 1867-1936 ; Fellini, Federico ; Scola, Ettore, 1931 Summary: Contemporary Italian Filmmaking is an innovative critique of Italian filmmaking in the aftermath of World War II, as it moves beyond traditional categories such as genre film and auteur cinema. Manuela Gieri demonstrates that Luigi Pirandello's revolutionary concept of humour was integral to the development of a countertradition in Italian filmmaking that she defines as 'humoristic.' She delineates a 'Pirandellian genealogy' in Italian cinema and culture through her examination of the works of Federico Fellini, Ettore Scola, and many directors of the 'new generation,' including Nanni Moretti, Gabriele Salvatores, Maurizio Nichetti, and Giuseppe TornatoreNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

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 JACKETNotes: Filmography: p.[239]-253

As portrayed by the news media - and by a chorus of government, academic and corporate experts - 'Islam' is synonymous with terrorism and religious hysteria. At the same time, Islamic countries use 'Islam' to justify unrepresentative and often repressive regimes. In this landmark work, for which he has written a new introduction, one of our foremost public thinkers examines the origins and repercussions of the media's monolithic images of Islam. Combining political commentary with literary criticism, Edward Said reveals the hidden assumptions and distortions of fact that underlie even the most 'objective' coverage of the Islamic world." - BOOK BLURBNotes: contains indexISBN: 009959501xDonation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006

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 siteISBN: 9781925984880

"Crime Wave represents and investigates gangster and heist movies, blaxploitation and noir, murder mysteries, vehicles for vigilante or buddy cops, even a gangster love story. It features biographies and filmographies detailing the key participants and background details of the film's making, locations and sets. It also explores each film's sources and influences, its impact on the crime genre and current fashion, including spin-offs, copies and sequels.

As critics and festival audiences embraced the new movement, Puiu emerged as its lodestar and critical voice.
Monica Filimon explores the works of an artist dedicated to truth not as an abstract concept, but as the ephemeral revelation of the fuller, ungraspable world beyond the screen. Puiu's innovative use of the handheld camera as an observer and his reliance on austere, restricted narration highlight the very limits of human understanding, guiding the viewer's intellectual and emotional sensibilities to the reality that has been left unfilmed. Filimon examines the director's ethics of epiphany not only in relation to the collective and personal histories that have triggered it, but also in dialogue with the films, texts, and filmmakers that have shaped it.
Informed and enlightening, Cristi Puiu is the first book-length study of an important twenty-first century filmmaker. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780252082276

Storytellers mobilize this legend in unique and exciting ways that reflect upon both the cultural and actual history of bushrangers, as well as speaking to contemporary concerns and driving debate on the national character. ‘A Cultural History of the Bushranger Legend in Theatres and Cinemas, 1828–2017’ is a multidisciplinary investigation into the history of cultural representations of the bushranger legend on the stage and screen, charting that history from its origins in colonial theatre works performed while bushrangers still roamed Australia’s bush to contemporary Australian cinema. It considers the influences of industrial, political and social disruptions on these representations as well as their contributions to those disruptions.
‘A Cultural History of the Bushranger Legend in Theatres and Cinemas, 1828–2017’ is a comprehensive cultural history of representations of bushrangers in cinema and colonial theatre. Beginning with the bushranger legend’s establishment, it explores the formative years of the representational tradition, identifying the origins of characteristics and the social and industrial mechanisms through which they passed from history to popular theatre. Tracing the legend’s development, the book interrogates the promotion of these characteristics from a contested popular history to an officially sanctioned national outlook in the cinema. Finally, it analyzes the contemporary fragmentation of the bushranger legend, attending to the dissatisfactions and challenges that arose in response to political and social debates galvanized by the 1988 bicentenary.
The cultural history recounted in ‘A Cultural History of the Bushranger Legend in Theatres and Cinemas, 1828–2017’ provides not only an into the role of popular narrative representations of bushrangers in the development and reflection of Australian character, but also a detailed case study of the specific mechanisms at work in the symbiosis between a nation’s values and its creative production. Bushrangers have had a heightened though unstable significance in Australia due to the nation’s diverse population and historical insecurities and conflicts over colonial identity, land rights and settlement. Community often defined the bushrangers in their stage and screen appearances, and the challenges that these marginalized communities faced were absorbed into the political and social mainstream. ‘A Cultural History of the Bushranger Legend in Theatres and Cinemas, 1828–2017’ is an insight into the process through which the bushranger legend earned its cultural resonance in Australia. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781783088911Contents: List of Figures -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction: Defining the Bushranger Legend -- Part 1: Establishing the Legend; 1.

Pennebaker, 1968) Summary: "This volume is the first book-length study of the extensive career and prolific works of D.A. Pennebaker, one of the pioneers of direct cinema, a documentary form that empahasizes observation and a straightforward portrayal of events. With a career spanning decades, Pennebaker's many projects have included avant-garde experiments (Daybreak Express), ground-breaking television documentaries (Primary), celebrity films (Dont Look Back), concert films (Monterey Pop), and innovative fusions of documentary and fiction (Maidstone). Exploring the concept of 'performing the real,' Keith Beattie's insightful analysis interprets Pennebaker's films as performances in which the act of filming is in itself a performative transgression of the norms of purely observational documentary. He examines the ways in which Pennebaker's presentation of unscripted everyday performances is informed by connections between documentary filmmaking and other experimental movements such as the New American Cinema. Through his collaborations with such various artists as Richard Leacock, Shirley Clarke, Norman Mailer, and Jean-Luc Godard, Pennebaker has continually reworked and redefined the forms of documentary filmmaking. This book also includes a recent interview with the director and a full filmography" -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.163-169) and indexISBN: 9780252078293Contents: -- acknowledgements -- performing the real -- concert film -- collaborative filmmaking -- portraiture -- rehearsal -- interview with D.A.

Drawing upon a wealth of original research, including unpublished scripts, interviews with top film and television practitioners, as well as a rare interview with the writer himself, John Cook reveals for the first time the often astonishing array of themes which link together all of Potter's writing: from his early television plays in the 1960s right through to his final works in 1994. In so doing, Cook unravels a series of clues to the writer as rich and as fascinating as any that haunted the character Philip Marlow, in Potter's most celebrated television series, The Singing Detective; As a guide to the work of a truly seminal 'television author', the book will be of great interest and value not only to students and teachers within the fields of media, literary and cultural studies, but also to the general reader, curious to find out more about the extraordinary life and career of this remarkable cultural figureNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 0719046017 (hardback); 0719046025 (paperback)LON: 95002169; 11443039

Cinema ; 26Subject: THEORY ; PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE CINEMA ; SEXUALITY AND THE CINEMA ; GENDER AND THE CINEMA Summary: "The Difficulty of Difference argues that serious misreadings of Freud and Lacan on sexual difference have characterized prevailing models of psychoanalytic film criticism. In critiquing theories of identification and female spectatorship, D. N. Rodowick maintains that early film theorists and recent feminist critics are equally guilty of imposing a binary conception of sexual difference on Freud's thought. By embracing such a rigid definition of male/female difference, they fail to understand the fundamentally complex and fluid process of sexual identification as it is articulated in Freud's writing, constructed in film texts, and negotiated by spectators." - taken from back coverNotes: Formerly CIP -- Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 0415903327Contents: Note on Abbreviations – Preface -- Chapter 1 The Difficulty of Difference -- Chapter 2 The Return of the Exile -- Chapter 3 Reading Freud ...

Guided by the late Dear Leader Kim Jong Il's manifesto The Cinema and Directing, Broinowski, in a world first, travels to Pyongyang to collaborate with North Korea's top directors, composers and movie stars to make a powerful anti-fracking propaganda film.

Emotion shapes how political issues and individuals are represented and perceived in documentary and it is crucial to how we engage with the vicissitudes of the public sphere. In the past documentary has been popularly perceived in ways that align it with education, science, history and the rational realm. This frame has never been adequate for understanding the broad array of styles and themes that can be seen in the documentary genre. Focusing on the question of subjectivity, Smail analyses various different kinds of individuals that can be found in documentaries, such as the female porn star, the politically disenfranchised, children, and the documentary auteur. She envisages an interdisciplinary approach to documentary drawing on scholarship from not only film studies, but also gender studies, queer theory, cultural theories of affect, critical race studies, political theory and pyschoanalysis.

Documentary and educational films of the 1930s / Rachael Low London, UK: George Allen & Unwin, 1979.

UK ; INSTRUCTIONAL FILMS ; PROPAGANDA FILMS ; POLITICAL FILMS ; TRUTH IN FILMS ; ANSTEY, EDGAR ; CAVALCANTI, ALBERTO ; ELTON, ARTHUR ; GRIERSON, JOHN ; ROTHA, PAUL ; WRIGHT, BASIL Summary: "With the advent of sound a host of film makers began, during the 1930s, to explore the wider possibilities of film as a means of communication. Without doubt the most spectacular development during this decade of social and political unrest was the dramatic growth of the mainstream British documentary movement closely associated with names such as John Grierson and Paul Rotha, which is often described as Britain's most important contribution to world cinema. In these pages for the first time a full and detailed account is given of people involved in the documentary movement and a coherant attempt is made to date and describe their whole output. Rachael Low demonstrates how different documentary styles evolved, developed and changed - and eventually split into two distinct schools of film making.
An equally important innovation in the 1930s was the first use of film for educational purposes. Rachael Low records in detail the many experiments and debates held to determine the best use of films in schools and the often disappointing attempts to produce satisfactory educational films."--BOOK JACKETNotes: includes bibliographical references; incldues film listing

A. ; MAYSLES, ALBERT & DAVID ; BARRON, ARTHUR ; WISEMAN, FREDERICK ; PINCUS, ED ; SHAMBERG, MICHAEL Summary: "Perhaps no other art form brings art and reality in any closer juxtaposition than the documentary film. Through the lenses of the documentary filmmaker, we have seen firsthand the excitement of rock concerts, the realities of our political leaders, and the lifestyles of exotic cultures. Few people would argue with the almost limitless potential of the medium, but have we seriously considered how "objective" these films really are - or can be? Should the filmmaker be more concerned with social change or objective reality? In this volume, G. Roy Levin discusses these questions, along with a whole range of aesthetic and political considerations, with the most prominent documentary filmmakers of the world. The directors include the Maysles brothers; Frederick Wiseman, responsible for Titicut Follies; Richard Leacock/D.A. Pennebaker, the team that produced Monterey Pop; and fourteen others, from England, France, Belgium and the U.S. The book includes a brief history of documentary film, as well as exhaustive filmographies on each director." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p.[405]-406ISBN: 0385045905LON: 14286490URL status: URL: 'http://-'

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

Each essay focuses on one or two important documentaries, engaging in questions surrounding ethics, ideology, politics, power, race, gender, and representation -- but always in terms of how they arise out of or are involved in the reading of specific documentaries as particular textual constructions. By closely reading documentaries as rich visual works, this anthology fills a void in the critical writing on documentaries, which tends to privilege production over aesthetic pleasure. As we perceive and comprehend the world through visual media increasingly, understanding the textual strategies by which individual documentaries are organized has become critically important. Together, the essays cover the significant developments in the history of the documentary, from the first commercially released feature, Nanook of the North (1922), to modern independent productions, such as An American Family (1973), Tongues Untied (1989), and Finding Christa (1991), and including important national and stylistic movements and various production contexts from the mainstream to the avant-garde. Seth Feldman places Dziga Vertov's Man with a Movie Camera (1929) within the context of constructivism and futurism; Vivian Sobchack discusses the strategies of Bunuel's Las Hurdas (Land without Bread, 1931) in relation to surrealism; and Joanne Hershfield explores Que viva Mexico! (1932) as the presentation of an exotic culture by a European director. Documenting the Documentary offers clear, serious, and insightful analyses of documentary films, and is a welcome balancebetween theory and criticism, abstract conceptualization and concrete analysis. --FROM PUBLISHER'S SITENotes: includes bibliiographic references and indexISBN: 0814326390Contents: Filmmaker as hunter / William Rothman -- Peace between man and machine / Seth Feldman -- Paradise regained / Joanne Hershfield -- Synthetic vision / Vivian Sobchack -- Art of national projection / William Guynn -- Mass psychology of fascist cinema / Frank P.

Double visions, double fictions : the doppelganger in Japanese film and literature / Baryon Tensor Posadas Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2018.
Call No: 71(520) POSAuthor: Posadas, Baryon Tensor Edition: 2018Place: MinneapolisPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2018PhysDes: 256 pages : illustrated ; 22 cmSubject: JAPAN ; DOUBLES IN FILMS ; HORROR FILMS ; PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE CINEMA Summary: A fresh take on the dopplegänger and its place in Japanese film and literature-past and present Since its earliest known use in German Romanticism in the late 1700s, the word Dopplegänger (double-walker) can be found throughout a vast array of literature, culture, and media. This motif of doubling can also be seen traversing historical and cultural boundaries. Double Visions, Double Fictions analyzes the myriad manifestations of the dopplegänger in Japanese literary and cinematic texts at two historical junctures: the interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s and the present day. According to author Baryon Tensor Posadas, the doppelgänger marks the intersection of the historical impact of psychoanalytic theory, the genre of detective fiction in Japan, early Japanese cinema, and the cultural production of Japanese colonialism. He examines the doppelgänger’s appearance in the works of Edogawa Rampo, Tanizaki Jun’ichiro, and Akutagawa Ryunosuke, as well as the films of Tsukamoto Shin’ya and Kurosawa Kiyoshi, not only as a recurrent motif but also as a critical practice of concepts. Following these explorations, Posadas asks: What were the social, political, and material conditions that mobilized the desire for the dopplegänger? And how does the dopplegänger capture social transformations taking place at these historical moments? -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781517902636

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. Hoberman reconstructs the hidden poltical history of 1960s cinema and the spectacular formation of America's mass-mediated politics" -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Originally published: 2003ISBN: 1565849787Contents: -- acknowledgments -- introduction: "suddenly...It's 1960!" -- I.

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 siteISBN: 9780231190510Contents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

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.

Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover and Joyce's Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Many are recent productions. Directors range from Alfred Hitchcock, John Huston, and Orson Welles to Francis Ford Coppola and Werner Herzog." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; "Selected filmography: film adaptations of English novels, 1719-1930s": p. 323-347; Bibliography: p. 352-368ISBN: 0804424721 : $13.00; 0804463581 (pbk.) : $5.95LON: 80005342; 1937478

In Part One, he gives an overview of what he terms the "Euro-American art film," which is characterized by prominent use of the English language, a European art-film director, cast and crew from at least two countries, and a stylistic mixing of European art film and American entertainment.
The second part of Lev's study examines in detail five examples of the Euro-American art film: Contempt (Jean-Luc Godard, 1963), Blow-up (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1966), The Canturbury Tales (Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1972), and The Last Emperor (Bernardo Bertolucci, 1987). These case studies reveal that the European art film has had a strong influence on world cinema and that many Euro-American films are truly cultural blends rather than abject takeovers by Hollywood cinema." -- Back coverNotes: Filmography: p.

Everyone was watching! : strategies of self-presentation in oral histories of cinema-going in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.261-274
Author: Huggett, Nancy PhysDes: ArticleSubject: AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF FILMS ; NARRATIVE IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; AUDIENCE RECEPTION. AUSTRALIA ; HISTORY OF CINEMA Summary: This article considers the different ways in which strategies of selective self-presentation on behalf of both interviewee and interviewer structure the oral history narrative, using, as an example. the ways in which embarrassment and shame function in narratives of cinema-going in Australia. The essay explores when and how embarrassment and shame feature in cinema-going narratives and also the way in which some issues, such as the recollection of segregation in rural cinemas, disrupt the easy conversational flow of a narrative and cause discomfort, bordering on embarrassment and shame for both interviewee and interviewer.
Drawing on oral histories and autobiographical accounts from New South Wales cinema-goers, this article delves into the public/private and past/present functions of embarrassment and shame in order to better understand cinema-going practices and recollection strategies. It takes into account how critical oral history and cultural theory can assist cinema studies to examine how practices of cinema-going are situated within wider cultural attidudes and discourses. -- Abstract

Godard's own persona - cultural hero, fierce loner, shrewd businessman - projects similarly shifting images. In the modern canon, he is a figure as mysterious as he is indispensible. Now, acclaimed critic Richard Brody offers the fullest picture yet of Godard's life and work, demsytifying the elusive filmmaker through hundreds of interviews with friends, relatives, and collaborators. He vividly depicts Godard's wealthy family, his changeable and often disturbing politics, his tumultuous dealings with fellow filmmakers, and his troubled relations with women. Tracing an arc from the director's early writing, through his popular success with Breathless and Contempt, to the grand vision of his later years, Everything Is Cinema shows decisively that Godard's films have left their mark on all screens, everywhere. -- BOOK BLURBNotes: "NBCC Award.

Film critics and scholars alike often regard these movies as the work of visionary auteurs, hailing directors like Michael Haneke and Lars von Trier as heirs to a tradition of transgressive art. In this provocative new book, Mattias Frey ofers a very different perspective on these films, exposing how they are also calculated products, designed to achieve global notoriety in a competitive marketplace. Extreme Cinema includes original interviews with the programmers of several leading international film festivals and with niche distributors and exhibitors, giving readers a revealing look at how these institutions enjoy a symbiotic relationship with the 'taboo-breakers' of arthouse cinema." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780813576497Contents: 1.

But how has this modern, technological, mass-circulating medium revealed the face in ways that are also distinct from any other? How has it altered our perception of this quintessential incarnation of the person? The archaic powers of masks and icons, the fashioning of the individual in the humanist portrait, the modernist anxieties of fragmentation and de-figuration—these are among the cultural precedents informing our experience in the movie theatre. Yet the moving, time-based image also offers radical new confrontations with the face: Dreyer's Passion of Joan of Arc, Donen's Funny Face, Hitchcock's The Wrong Man, Bresson's Au hazard, Balthazar, Antonioni's Screen Test, Warhol's filmic portraits of celebrity and anonymity. Such intense encounters, examined in this book, manifest a desire for transparency and plenitude, but—especially in post-classical cinema—also betray a profound ambiguity that haunts the human countenance, confronting interiority as opacity, treading the gap between image and language. The spectacular impact of the cinematic face is uncannily intertwined with a reticence, an ineffability; but is it not for this very reason that—like faces in the world—it still enthralls us? -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780199863167Contents: Acknowledgements -- Preface: Face Moving Image -- A Dispositif -- An Ur-Image -- The Face Against the Image -- Itineraries Chapter One: We Had Faces, Then -- Expressivity in the 1920s -- Joan of Arc, Inevitably -- The Face and its Voices -- Glamour/Anti-Glamour Chapter Two: Roland Barthes Looks at the Stars -- Towards “Visages et Figures,” and circa 1953 Excursus on the Face in Language -- Into the Movie Theater -- Ultra-Face Excursus on the Mask -- From Cult to Charm: Funny Face Chapter Three: Face-to-Face (with The Wrong Man) -- What Godard Saw -- What the Clerk Saw Excursus on Anthropometrics -- Not a Mirror, Not a Lamp Chapter Four: Pass/Fail: Screen Test, Apparatus, Subject -- The Antonioni Screen Test Excursus on the Portrait -- Outer and Inner Space, and the Pathos of Time -- Fail Better Chapter Five: In Reticence (Bresson) -- The Epidermal and the Written -- The Image Against the Face -- Not an Open Book, but a Door Ajar -- Postface: The Two-Shot: Inherent

Emphasising the contradicions of fandom, Matt Hills outlines the ways in which fans have been conceptualised in cultural theory and challenges many of these established paradigms. Hills draws on case studies of specific groups, such as elvis impersonators, X-Philes and Trekkers, and discusses a reange of approaches to fandom. Taking all of this into account, he ultimately questions whether the development of new media creates the possibility of new forms of fandom and explores the significance fo the term 'cult' for media fans.

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 COVERNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781472123725

Contributors explore issues of masculinity as well as femininity, reflecting on the interface of popular cinema with gendered realities and feminist ideas. Topics include the gendered political economy of cinema, the female director as auteur, postfeminist fatherhood, consumer culture, depictions of professional women, transgender, sexuality, gendered violence, and the intersections of gender, race, and ethnic identities." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes list of figures, bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780415895880Contents: List of figures -- Acknowledgements; Introduction: "Re-vision"?: Feminist film criticism in the twenty-first century / Hilary Radner and Rebecca Stringer; Part I: Masculinity in question -- "The first Bond who bleeds, literally and metaphorically": gendered spectatorship for "pretty boy" action movies / Janet Staiger -- Queer memories and universal emotions: A Single Man (2009) / Michael DeAngelis -- "Lad flicks": discursive reconstruction of masculinity in popular film / David Hansen-Miller and Rosalind Gill -- Transamerica (2005): the road to the multiplex after New Queer Cinema / Gary Needham; Part II: New feminine subjects: a space for women? -- Enchanted (2007) by postfeminism: gender, irony, and new romantic comedy / Yvonne Tasker -- Neoliberal feminism in Miss Congeniality (2000) / Yael D Sherman -- Girls' sexualities in The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants universe: feminist challenges and missed opportunities / Sarah Projansky -- Michael Clayton (2007): women lawyers betrayed - again / Taunya Lovell Banks -- Crossing race, crossing sex in Gurinder Chadha's Bend It Like Beckham (2002): managing anxiety in multicultural Britain / Mridula Nath Chakraborty -- Speaking the name of the father in the neo-romantic comedy: 13 Going On 30 (2004) / Hilary Radner; Part III: Consuming culture(s) -- No country for old women: gendering cinema in conglomerate Hollywood / Rob Schaap -- Music and the woman's film: Sex and the City: The Movie (2008) / Peter Stapleton -- Independence at what cost?

Femmes Fatales examines Freud, the female spectator, the meaning of the close-up, and the nature of stardom. Duane's analyses of such figures as Pabst's Lulu and Rita Hayworth's Gilda trace the thematics and mechanics of maskes, masquerade, and veiling, with specific attention to the form and technology of the cinema. Working through and against the intellectual frameworks of post-structuralist and psychoanalytic theory, Doane interrogates cinematic and theoretical claims to truth about women which rely on judgements about vision and its stability or instability. Reflecting the shift in conceptual priorities within feminist film theory over the last decade, Femmes Fatales addresses debates over female spectatorhsip, essentialism and anti-essentialism, the tensions between psychoanalysis and history, and the relations between racial and sexual difference. Doane's nuanced and original readings of the femme fatale in cinema demonstrates that confrontations between feminism, film theory and psychoanalysis can be productively destabilizing for each discipline. -- PUBLISHERNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 269-300) and indexISBN: 041590319X; 0415903203 (pbk.)LON: 91003659; 8050789

This volume identifies and investigates a far wider array of problems posed by the process of adaptation.
Thomas Leitch considers how the creators of short silent films attempted to give them the weight of literature, what sorts of fidelity are possible in an adaptation of sacred scripture, what it means for an adaptation to pose as an introduction to, rather than a transcription of, a literary classic, and why and how some films have sought impossibly close fidelity to their sources. Leitch's analysis moves beyond literary sources to consider why a small number of adaptors have risen to the status of auteurs and how illustrated books, comic strips, video games, and true stories have been adaptated to the screen." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references (p.

Harbord argues that the space in which we view films, whether it be a multiplex, an art house or our own home, as well as the way in which we view them, as either singular objects or hypertexts linked to an almost infinite variety of other products, connects us to a particular film culture. Shifting the focus of film analysis from the text to the paths of circulation, Film cultures invites us to explore the ways in which film connects us to specific social, national, and global networks."Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [164]-176) and indexISBN: 0761965211Contents: Introduction - Chapter 1 Breaking with the aura?

Summary: The critical writings of Adrian Stokes, based on the psychoanalyst Melanie Klein's innovative theories, were enormously influential on visual art and culture during his lifetime, but have rarely been applied to film. In this first major study of Stokes, his ideas and those of the philosopher Richard Wolheim are considered in relation to two central issues in current film theory - film as representation and as expression. Stokes fundamental distinction between carving and modelling which reflects Klein's own division in mental life between paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions is explored in relation to the traditional division in film theory between montage and realism. At the core of this study is the role of the Kleinian notion of phantasy in understanding film as an art form. To this end, the carving and modelling modes are applied to the films of Ford, Hitchcock, Rossellini, Antonioni, Dreyer, Eisenstein and American B movies.

But 'heritage cinema' is all too often discussed from literary (not cinematic) perspectives, and criticism of the films has long been overshadowed by the question of a film's fidelity to the original text. This volume of essays, reviews, and interviews seeks to redress this imbalance, by examining the often antagonistic relationship between literature and film - presenting both sides of the argument about whether heritage cinema's elaborate aesthetics owe more to nostalgia than to historical accuracy. In her challenging introduction to the volume, Ginette Vincendeau sketches the terms of the debate, arguing that the genre is an important, but often critically neglected, form of popular cinema. Film/Literature/Heritage, the latest in a series of 'Sight and Sound Readers', embraces a wide range of literary adaptation, from William Shakespeare to William Burroughs, covering films from Orlando to LA Confidential, and directors from Martin Scorcese to Peter Greenaway." - BOOK BLURBISBN: 0851708420; 0851708412(pbk.) : ¦13.99LON: 22285912

Can a director, as the conductor of an orchestra of writers, actors, cameramen and technicians, stamp his personal vision on the films he makes? This and related questions are raised by this collection of statements made by famous directors about their art. Harry Geguld’s anthology of “patristic writings” runs from the days (in 1895) when Louis Lumiere filmed a train entering a station, by way of Charlie Chaplin’s knockabout ad-libbing, to the sophisticated ruminations of Antonioni and Bergman and the ideas behind the nouvelle vague. Here is D.W. Griffith’s scouting the very idea of talking pictures; Mack Sennett on custard pies; Eisenstein on three-dimensional film; Cocteau on the raw materials of illusion; Kurosawa on filming in Japan; Hitchcock on the macabre; and some other twenty leading directors on aspects of their work. In his introduction, Harry Geguld assesses the unique characteristics of motion pictures and comments refreshingly on the eternal controversy of “book into film”. [Taken from back cover.]ID2: 291

Source: USPlace: Berkeley LondonPublisher: University of California PressPubDate: 2014PhysDes: xxi, 651 p. ; 26 cmSubject: AVANT-GARDE FILMS ; CONSTRUCTIVISM ; SURREALISM AND THE CINEMA ; STRUCTURALISM ; NOUVELLE VAGUE ; IMPERIALISM AND THE CINEMA ; GENDER AND THE CINEMA ; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA ; PORNOGRAPHY AND THE CINEMA ; DOCUMENTARY FILMS ; DOCUMENTARIES ; PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA ; WORLD CINEMA ; LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES ; AESTHETICS ; ARCHIVES & INSTITUTES, FILM Summary: Film Manifestoes and Global Cinema Cultures is the first book to collect manifestoes from the global history of cinema, providing the first historical and theoretical account of the role played by film manifestos in filmmaking and film culture. Focussing equally on political and aesthetic manifestoes, Scott MacKenzie uncovers a neglected, yet nevertheless central history of the cinema, exploring a series of documents that postulate ways in which to re-imagine the cinema and, in the process, re-imagine the world.
This volume collects the major European “waves” and figures (Eisenstein, Truffaut, Bergman, Free Cinema, Oberhausen, Dogme ‘95); Latin American Third Cinemas (Birri, Sanjinés, Espinosa, Solanas); radical art and the avant-garde (Buñuel, Brakhage, Deren, Mekas, Ono, Sanborn); and world cinemas (Iimura, Makhmalbaf, Sembene, Sen). It also contains previously untranslated manifestos co-written by figures including Bollaín, Debord, Hermosillo, Isou, Kieslowski, Painlevé, Straub, and many others. Thematic sections address documentary cinema, aesthetics, feminist and queer film cultures, pornography, film archives, Hollywood, and film and digital media. Also included are texts traditionally left out of the film manifestos canon, such as the Motion Picture Production Code and Pius XI's Vigilanti Cura, which nevertheless played a central role in film culture. -- extract taken from the back of the bookNotes: Includes index -- Includes bibliographical references and index.ISSN: 9780520276741Contents: Introduction. “An Invention without a Future” -- 1.

Summary: "At a moment when the cinema is struggling to escape from both the Hollywood blockbuster and the art form, FILM WORLD is a reminder of the true nature of cinema itself. In a personal survey of astonishing range and uncommon perception of Ivor Montagu shows us the facts of the film as art form, as undustry, and as a means of social communication. The four parts of the book - Film as Science, Film as Art, Film as Commodity, and Film as Vehicle - cover every aspect of the medium - its history, its resemblance to and difference from other arts, its aesthetic laws, the compound effects of sound and vision, the business side and in particular the inherent tendency towards monopoly."

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.

The only natural colour process to be a commercial success before 1920 was Kinemacolor, a process invented by an Englishman, George A Smith, and exploited by an American, Charles Urban. This booklet tells the story of how Kinemacolor was developed, given its first public showing in London in 1909 and then shown in many countries in the world. Although it had its limitations, the process was successful for many years before the First World War. Some of the motion picture colour processes which superseded Kinemacolor are described. The work is based on a collection of apparatus, manuscripts, and ephemera given to the Science Museum by Charles Urban." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Reprint.

Quotations: -- "But the real money these blockbusters generate is not at the box office but in DVD sales"; -- "So far, most sales are of new release movies. That has created an extra revenue stram for film studios and one with huge potential as more people buy DVD players and as other material such as television shows, children's shows and music become popular in DVD format."; -- ""DVD is a significant new revenue window and I don't think the market has worked that out yet," Macquarie Equities analyst Alex Pollak said. "It is a new way of consuming movies...in five years' time there will be more DVDs on American bookshelves than books.""; -- "...for every $US8.6 million taken in opening box office receipts, a studio will sell 1 million DVDs."

Frank films : the film and video work of Robert Frank / edited by Brigitta Burger-Utzer, Grissemann Gottingen: Steidl, 2009.
Call No: 81 FRA FRAAuthor: Burger-Utzer, Brigitta ; Grissemann, Stephen Edition: 2009Place: GottingenPublisher: SteidlPubDate: 2009PhysDes: 272 pages : illustrated ; 24 cmSubject: FRANK, ROBERT ; PULL MY DAISY (US, Robert Frank & Alfred Leslie, 1959) ; COCKSUCKER BLUES (US, Robert Frank, 1972) ; CANDY MOUNTAIN (SZ/CN/FR, Robert Frank & Rudy Wurlitzer, 1987) Summary: “I put my Leica in a cupboard. Enough of lying in wait, pursuing, sometimes catching the essence of the black and the white, the knowledge where God is. I make films. Now I speak to the people in my viewfinder.” (Robert Frank)
Robert Frank turned to filmmaking at the end of the 1950s. Although he has made 27 films, the work is largely a well kept secret. Frank approaches each film project as a new experience, challenging the medium and its possibilities at every turn. He has amalgamated documentary, fiction, and autobiography, cutting across genres.
This book offers a visually unique approach to Frank’s films: only new stills taken from videotapes have been used and they add up to a visual essay on Frank’s cinema that establishes an engaging dialogue with his photographic work. Each film is introduced with detailed analysis, discussing the history and the aesthetics of Frank’s film work. An interview with Allen Ginsberg provides an insider view. Together the texts and images offer an innovative and in-depth approach to the oeuvre of one of the greatest and most restless artists of the 20th century. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9783865218155

Funky Bollywood : the wild world of 1970s Indian action cinema; a selective guide / by Todd Stadtman Godalming, Surrey: FAB Press,

INDIA ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA.INDIA ; SHOLAY (II, Ramesh Sippy, 1975) Summary: Despite the often stereotypical notions of Bollywood, it’s not all weddings, wet saris and running around trees. In the 1970s, Indian cinema gave birth to a new breed of action movie, one that combined its own exuberant traditions with foreign influences like the gritty urban crime thrillers of the New Hollywood, Hong Kong martial arts cinema, and Italian exploitation fare.
This was the domain of hard fighting he-men stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra and Feroz Khan and badass, whip-wielding heroines played by the likes of the gorgeous Zeenat Aman, Hema Malini, and Rekha.
Let world cult cinema fanatic Todd Stadtman be your guide through this world of karate killers, femme fatales, space age lairs, bombshells and booby traps with Funky Bollywood, a book with an attitude as freewheeling and feisty as its subject matter, bursting with colour and imagination on every vibrant page! -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781903254776

Covering a range of art movements, filmmakers such as Godard and Bresson, and thinkers such as Foucault, Deleuze, Adorno, Barthes, Lyotard and Greenberg, Ranciere shows that contemporary theorists of the image are suffering from religious tendencies. He argues that there is a stark political choice in art: it can either reinforce a move towards radical democracy, or help crate a new reactionary mysticism. For Ranciere there is never a pure art: the aesthetic revolution must always embrace egalitarian ideals" - BOOK BLURBNotes: Translation of: Le Destin des images.; Includes bibliographical references and index.; Translated from the French.ISBN: 978-1-84467-297-4Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2010Contents: sources of texts -- 1: the future of the image -- 2: sentence, image, history -- 3: paintin in the text -- 4:The surface of design -- 5: are some things unrepresentable? -- note -- index

It demonstrates that genre matters in a manner not constrained by disciplinary boundaries and includes new work on Genre Theory and applications of thinking about genre from Aristotle to Derrida and beyond. The essays focus on economies of expectation and competency, genre as media form, recent developments in television broadcast genres, translation and genericity, the role played by genre in film publicity, gender and genre, genre in fiction, and the problematics of classification. An introductory essay places the contributions in the context of a wide range of thinking about genre in the arts, media and humanities.

Author and veteran filmmaker Rustin Thompson shows that by stripping away, sidestepping, or reassessing the entrenched industry hurdles-long waits for funding, the unwieldy crews, the unnecessary gear, the gauntlet of film festivals, pitch forums, and distribution networks-filmmakers can move quickly from idea to execution to finished film. Throughout the book, Thompson demystifies and de-clutters the way docs are produced today, illustrating the use of a few simple and accessible tools and techniques while still engaging with the aesthetic possibilities of the medium, its creative opportunities and its satisfying rewards of giving back to the world. Using the essential lessons in Get Close, filmmakers will learn to eliminate physical and financial barriers between themselves and their subject matter, ultimately leading them to tell more artful, illuminating stories and find the joy in documentary filmmaking. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780190909901Contents: Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- Lean Team Filmmaking Will Liberate You -- Chapter One: My Lean Team Epiphany -- The Revolution Was Televised -- Chapter Two: Get Close -- Eliminate Barriers and Plan Your Project -- Chapter Three: The Lean Team Toolkit -- Essential gear and supporting equipment -- Chapter Four: The Shoot -- Field Production in the Lean Team Style -- Chapter Five: The Edit -- Cutting as a Lean Team Filmmaker -- Chapter Six: Film Festivals and Distribution -- Keep Your Lean Team Soul and Find an Audience

Ghettos, tramps, and welfare queens : down and out on the silver screen / Stephen Pimpare New York, NY: Oxford University Press, 2017.

It provides a novel kind of guide to social policy, exploring how ideas about poor and homeless people have been reflected in popular culture and evaluating those images against the historical and contemporary reality. Richly illustrated and examining nearly 300 American-made films released between 1902 and 2015, Ghettos, Tramps, and Welfare Queens finds and describes representations of poor and homeless people and the places they have inhabited throughout the century-long history of U.S. cinema. It moves beyond the merely descriptive to deliberate whether cinematic representations of homelessness and poverty changed over time, and if there are patterns to be discerned. Ultimately, the text offers a preliminary response to a handful of harder questions about causation and consequence: Why are these portrayals as they are? Where do they come from? Are they a reflection of American attitudes and policies toward marginalized populations, or do they help create them? What does this all mean for politics and policymaking?
Of interest to movie buffs and film scholars, cultural critics and historians, policy analysts, and those curious to know more about homelessness and American poverty, Ghettos, Tramps, and Welfare Queens is a unique window into American politics, history, policy, and culture -- it is an entertaining and enlightening journey." -- book jacketNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780190660727Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Key U.S. films discussed, 1902-2015 -- Introduction -- Part 1: In the ghetto: Poor places and the people in them -- The evils of the city -- Modern gangs and ghetto gurls -- The urban hellscape -- Social workers and charity reformers -- Welfare queens -- Teachers to the rescue -- The architecture of poverty -- Escaping the city: rural poverty -- Part 2: On the street, on the road: poor out of doors -- The first tramp -- The last free tramp and the hobo played for laughs -- Imposter tramps -- Forgotten men -- The depression through the eyes of a clever child -- The modern tramp: villains -- The modern tramp: victors -- The modern tramp: victims -- Women and children last -- Conclusion: The propertied gaze.

Call No: 722.81 GRIAuthor: Fisher, Austin (ed.) ; Walker, Johnny (ed.) Source: US/UKPlace: New YorkPublisher: Bloomsbury AcademicPubDate: 2016PhysDes: 266 pages ; 25 cmSeries: Global exploitation cinemasSubject: EXPLOITATION FILMS ; BLAXPLOITATION FILMS ; HORROR FILMS ; HISTORY OF CINEMA ; HISTORY OF CINEMA. 1960's ; HISTORY OF CINEMA. 1970's ; HISTORY OF CINEMA. 1980's ; EROTIC FILMS ; MOVEMENTS AND STYLES IN FILM HISTORY ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA ; CRITICISM Summary: "The pervasive image of New York's 42nd Street as a hub of sensational thrills, vice and excess, is from where “grindhouse cinema,” the focus of this volume, stemmed. It is, arguably, an image that has remained unchanged in the mind's eye of many exploitation film fans and academics alike. Whether in the pages of fanzines or scholarly works, it is often recounted how, should one have walked down this street between the 1960s and the 1980s, one would have undergone a kaleidoscopic encounter with an array of disparate “exploitation” films from all over the world that were being offered cheaply to urbanites by a swathe of vibrant movie theatres.
The contributors to Grindhouse: Cultural Exchange on 42nd Street, and Beyond consider “grindhouse cinema” from a variety of cultural and methodological positions. Some seek to deconstruct the etymology of “grindhouse” itself, add flesh to the bones of its cadaverous history, or examine the term's contemporary relevance in the context of both media production and consumerism. Others offer new inroads into hitherto unexamined examples of exploitation film history, presenting snapshots of cultural moments that many of us thought we already understood." -- BOOK BACK COVERNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781628927498Contents: -- Table of Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction: 42nd Street, and Beyond -- Austin Fisher and Johnny Walker -- Chapter 1 -- Grinding out the Grindhouse: Exploitation, Myth and Memory / Glenn Ward -- Chapter 2 -- Where Did We Come In?: The Economics of Unruly Audiences, Their Cinemas and Tastes, From Serial Houses to Grind Houses / Phyll Smith -- Chapter 3 -- Temporary Fleapits and Scabs' Alley:The Theatrical Dissemination of Italian Cannibal Films in Melbourne, Australia / Dean Brandum -- Chapter 4 -- Run, Angel, Run: Serial Production and the Biker Movie, 1966-72 / Peter Stanfield -- Chapter 5 -- "The Smashing, Crashing, Pileup of the Century": The Carsploitation Film / Robert J Read -- Chapter 6 -- Cars and Girls (and Burgers and Weed): Branding, Mainstreaming, and Crown International Pictures' SoCal Drive-in Movies / Richard Nowell -- Chapter 7 -- From "Sex Entertainment for the Whole Family" to Mature Pictures: I Jomfruens Tegn and Transnational Erotic Cinema / Kevin Heffernan -- Chapter 8 -- 'Bigger Than A Payphone, Smaller Than A Cadillac': Porn Stardom in Exhausted: John C Holmes The Real Story / Neil Jackson -- Chapter 9 -- From Opera House to Grindhouse (And Back Again): Ozploitation In and Beyond Australia / Alexandra Heller-Nicholas -- Chapter 10 -- Go West, Brother: the Politics of Landscape in the Blaxploitation Western / Austin Fisher -- Chapter 11 -- Red Power, White Movies: Billy Jack, Johnny Firecloud, and the Cultural Politics of the "Indiansploitation" Cycle / David Church -- Chapter 12 -- Sleazy Strip-Joints and Perverse Porn Circuses: The Remediation of Grindhouse in the Porn Productions of Jack the Zipper / Clarissa Smith -- Select Bibliography -- Contributors -- index --

to certain aspects of American culture and classical Hollywood cinema. Far
from being an ephemeral and shortlived genre, horror actually relates to many facets of American history from its beginnings to the present day. Individual chapters examine aspects of the genre, its roots in the Universal horror films of the 1930s, the Val Lewton RKO unit of the 1940s, and the crucial role of Alfred Hitchcock as the father of the modern American horror film. Subsequent chapters investigate the key works of the 1970s by directors such as Larry Cohen, George A. Romero, Brian De Palma, Wes Craven, and Tobe Hooper, revealing the distinctive nature of films such as Bone, It’s Alive, God Told Me, Carrie, The Exorcist, Exorcist 2, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, as well as the contributions of such writers as Stephen King. Tony Williams also studies the slasher films of the 1980s and 1990s, such as the Friday the 13th series, Halloween, the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Nightmare on Elm Street, exploring their failure to improve on the radical achievements of the films of the 1970s.
After covering some post-1970s films, such as The Shining, the book concludes with a new postscript examining neglected films of the twentieth and early twenty-first century. Despite the overall decline in the American horror film, Williams determines that, far from being dead, the family horror film is still with us. Elements of family horror even appear in modern television series such as The Sopranos. This updated edition also includes a new introduction.-[taken from publishers site]Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 333-346) and indexISBN: 9781628461909Contents: Introduction: family assault in the American horror film -- Classical shapes of rage: universal and beyond -- Lewton or "the ambiguities" -- To Psycho and beyond: the Hitchcock connection -- Return of the native: the satanic assaults -- Far from Vietnam: the family at war -- Sacrificial victims -- Chain saw massacres: the apocalyptic dimension -- The return of Kronos -- Poltergeist and Freddy's nightmares -- The King adaptations -- Into the nineties -- Postscript.

His public facade is part of our collective memory but the man behind it, and how his passion and determination changed Australian culture forever is revealed in 'Hector'.

It is a world that Lynda Obst, one of the most successful producers in Hollywood today, entered two decades ago as a neophyte and where through resolve, determination, and quick wit, she has been able to produce some of today's biggest movies, including The Fisher King and Sleepless in Seattle.
Now in Hello, He Lied, Lynda Obst takes us on a behind-the-scenes tour of her world - onto sound stages with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, inside meetings with David Geffen and Peter Guber, on location in New York City with George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer, and into negotiations over The Hot Zones. She shares what she has learned in over twenty years in the business, about how to pitch an idea, impress a suit, win a bidding war over a hot script, and massage egos, as well as the all consuming issue of how to dress on location, what to say to skittish directors, where to eat lunch - whether in New York, LA, or a town you've never heard of - and most important, how to produce successful, critically acclaimed movies.Notes: First published: Boston : Little, Brown, c1996ISBN: 0732258618 : $16.95LON: abn97006410; 12942780

Seizing on the way these differences are accentuated, sensationalized, and eroticized on the screen - most often with little apparent regard for the political context in which they operate - Willis restores that context through close readings of a range of movies from cinematic blockbusters to the work of the new auteurs, Spike Lee, David Lynch, and Quentin TarantinoNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

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 JACKETNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781405155564Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- Part One: Taking Hitchcock Seriously [Section Intro and Bibliography] -- 1.

Call No: 81HIT BRUAuthor: Bruns, John Source: USPlace: Evanston, IllinoisPublisher: Northwestern Univesity PressPubDate: 2019PhysDes: ix, 215 pages: illustrations; 23cmSubject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED ; HUMAN RELATIONS IN FILMS ; LODGER, THE (UK, Alfred Hitchcock, 1926) ; SHADOW OF A DOUBT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1943) ; PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960) ; BIRDS, THE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1963) ; CROWDS IN FILMS ; MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964) ; I CONFESS (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1953) ; SUPERNATURAL IN FILMS ; URBAN LIFE IN FILMS ; LANDSCAPES IN FILMS Summary: "Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things argues that Alfred Hitchcock was as much a filmmaker of things and places as he was of people. Drawing on the thought of Bruno Latour, John Bruns traces the complex relations of human and nonhuman agents in Hitchcock’s films with the aim of mapping the Hitchcock landscape cognitively, affectively, and politically. Yet this book does not promise that such a map can or will cohere, for Hitchcock was just as adept at misdirection as he was at direction. Bearing this in mind and true to the Hitchcock spirit, Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things anticipates that people will stumble into the wrong places at the wrong time, places will be made uncanny by things, and things exchanged between people will act as (not-so) secret agents that make up the perilous landscape of Hitchcock’s work.
This book offers new readings of well-known Hitchcock films, including The Lodger, Shadow of a Doubt, Psycho, The Birds, and Marnie, as well as insights into lesser-discussed films such as I Confess and Family Plot. Additional close readings of the original theatrical trailer for Psycho and a Hitchcock-directed episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents expand the Hitchcock landscape beyond conventional critical borders. In tracing the network of relations in Hitchcock’s work, Bruns brings new Hitchcockian tropes to light. For students, scholars, and serious fans, the author promises a thrilling critical navigation of the Hitchcock landscape, with frequent “mental shake-ups” that Hitchcock promised his audience." -- FROM BLURBNotes: Includes bibliography and index.ISBN: 9780810139954Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction: Navigating the Hitchcock Landscape -- Chapter 1.

Discusses the representation of femininity and the ways in which it can be used in a powerful, resourceful and often subversive manner in the context of the patriarchal, pre-second-wave-feminism society in which Hitchcock's films were made.

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

CHINA ; WOMEN IN FILMS. HONG KONG ; ASIAN COUNTRIES ; EXHIBITION. CHINA ; PRODUCTION ASIA ; ENG ESTHER Summary: Starting with the first “Western shadow plays” shown in the late 1890s, motion pictures have played a significant role in China’s cultural existence for more than a century. Initially centered in Shanghai, Chinese cinema boomed in Hong Kong in the 1930s, aided by the advent of talkies and the influx of talent and investment from mainland China, Southeast Asia, and America. From the late 1940s, Hong Kong supplanted Shanghai as the “Hollywood of China”. In Hong Kong Cinema: A Cross-Cultural View, authors Law Kar and Frank Bren follow the story from Hong Kong’s early silent, Chuang Tsi Tests His Wife, through the martial arts craze of the 1970s, to the medium’s continued appeal for contemporary international audiences. Rather than provide a sweeping history, the authors focus on the impact of individual personalities, particularly local filmmakers and movie stars. They also consider Eastern and Western influences and examine major developments, including the changing role of women. By profiling key figures and events of the 20th century, this overview is the perfect introduction for anyone interested in Hong Kong’s contribution to world cinema.

HONG KONG ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA. HONG KONG Summary: Since the 1960s, Hong Kong cinema has helped to shape one of the world's most popular cultural genres: action cinema. Hong Kong action films have proved popular over the decades with audiences worldwide, and they have seized the imaginations of filmmakers working in many different cultural traditions and styles. How do we account for this appeal, which changes as it crosses national borders?
Hong Kong Connections brings leading film scholars together to explore the uptake of Hong Kong cinema in Japan, Korea, India, Australia, France and the US, as well as its links with Taiwan, Singapore and the Chinese mainland. In the process, this collective study examines diverse cultural contexts for action cinema's popularity, and the problems involved in the transnational study of globally popular forms - suggesting that in order to grasp the history of Hong Kong action cinema's influence we need to bring out the difference as well as the links that constitute popularity.

USA ; NATIONAL CULTURE AND TV ; POLITICS AND TV ; YOUTUBE Summary: "We all have opinions about the television shows we watch, but television criticism is about much more than simply evaluating the merits of a particular show and deeming it "good" or "bad". Rather, criticism uses the close examination of a television program to explore that program's cultural significance, creative strategies, and its place in a broader social context. How to Watch Television brings together forty original essays from today's leading scholars on television culture, writing about the programs they care (and think) the most about. Each essay focuses on a particular television show, demonstrating one way to read the program and, through it, our media culture. The essays model how to practice media criticism in accessible language, providing critical insights through analysis - suggesting a way of looking at TV that students and interested viewers might emulate. The contributors discuss a wide range of television programs past and present, covering many formats and genres, broadcast and cable, providing a broad representation of the programs that are likely to be covered in a media studies course.

In Humor in Middle Eastern Cinema, editors Gayatri Devi and Najat Rahman shed light on this tradition, as well as humor and laughter motivated by other intent—including parody, irony, the absurd, burlesque, and dark comedy. Contributors trace the proliferation of humor in contemporary Middle Eastern cinema in the works of individual directors and from the perspectives of genre, national cinemas, and diasporic cinema. Humor in Middle Eastern Cinema explores what humor theorists have identified as an “emancipatory,” “liberatory,” even “revolutionary” function to humor. Among the questions contributors ask are: How does Middle Eastern cinema and media highlight the stakes and place of humor in art and in life? What is its relation to the political? Can humor in cinematic art be emancipatory? What are its limits for its intervention or transformation? Contributors examine the region’s masterful auteurs, such as Abbas Kiarostami, Youssef Chahine, and Elia Suleiman and cover a range of cinematic settings, including Egypt, Iran, Israel, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Tunisia, and Turkey. They also trace diasporic issues in the distinctive cinema of India and Pakistan. This insightful collection will introduce readers to a variety of contemporary Middle Eastern cinema that has attracted little critical notice. Scholars of cinema and media studies as well as Middle Eastern cultural history will appreciate this introduction to a complex and fascinating cinema." -- GOOGLE BOOKSNotes: Contains bibliography and filmography -- contains index -- contains list of contributorsISBN: 9780814339374Contents: Introduction / Gayatri Devi and Najat Rahman -- Humor, loss, and the possibility for politics in recent Palestinian cinema / Najat Rahman -- Strategies of subversion in Ben Ali's Tunisia: allegory and satire in Moncef Dhouib's TV Is Coming / Robert Lang -- Satiric traversals in the comedy of Mehran Modiri: space, irony, and national allegory on Iranian television / Cyrus Ali Zargar -- Ethnic humor, stereotypes, and cultural power in Israeli cinema / Elise Burton -- The laughter of Youssef Chahine / Najat Rahman -- Comedic meditations: war and genre in The Outcasts / Somy Kim -- Humor and the cinematic sublime in Kiarostami's The Wind Will Carry Us / Gayatri Devi -- America the oppressively funny: humor and anti-americanisms in modern Turkish cinema / Perin Gurel -- Laughter across borders: the case of the Bollywood film Tere Bin Laden / Mara Matta

The image decade : television documentary, 1965-1975 / by Charles Montgomery Hammond, Jr New York: Hastings House, c1981.
Call No: 761 HAMAuthor: Hammond, Charles Montgomery Place: New YorkPublisher: Hastings HousePubDate: c1981PhysDes: 285 p. : ports. ; 25 cmSeries: Communication arts books; Studies in public communicationSubject: CBS ; DOCUMENTARIES ; KENNEDY FAMILY ON TV ; NBC TELEVISION NETWORK ; NEWS PROGRAMMES ; NIXON [RICHARD M.] ON TV ; NON-FICTION PROGRAMMES ; POLITICS AND TV ; SOCIAL PROBLEMS ON TV ; VIETNAM WAR ON TV Summary: "During the volatile years of 1965-1975, television emerged as the single most potent medium for bringing truth to the American public. Unforgettably vivid images and thought-provoking, soul-stirring commentary came right into the living room, creating a new and exciting awareness of world events. Documentary became a form of television that could best speak the truth.
The Image Decade describes the evolution of commercial network relevision news and theme documentary during those turbulent years, offering theory, criticism, history, and practical illustrations. Provocative analyses of the work of outstanding documentary producers and reporters at NBC, CBS and ABC are provided, revealing how these men and women brought the great domestic issues, scientific advances and space explorations, war stories from Vietnam, the Middle East and Northern Ireland, and the successive power struggles in Washington into the American home.
Throughout this period, events both wonderful and terrible took place all over the world. Television was there to capture them, with the result that newsgathering became an essential public service offered by the networks. Television documentary took this service one step further by presenting an innovative visual manifestation of history. With its lively descriptions and informative appraisals, The Image Decade sheds a bright light on the major part television news and documentary has played in our lives." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 267-269ISBN: 0803834322 (pbk.); 0803834314LON: 1892916URL status: URL: 'http://-'

Identifying and analyzing the many complex forces that shape the production and distribution of feature films, the authors detail how independent filmmakers create work that reflects independent voices and challenges political, economic, and cultural constraints.
With chapters on the under-explored cinemas of Greece, Turkey, Iraq, China, Malaysia, Peru, and West Africa, as well as traditional production centres such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, Independent Filmmaking around the Globe explores how contemporary independent filmmaking increasingly defines the global cinema of our time." -- TAKEN FROM FIRST PAGE OF BOOKNotes: Includes bibliographical references and filmographyISBN: 9781442626836Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: -- foreword: producing independently in global industry / David Hamilton -- ackowledgments -- 1.The Meaning of Independence: Concepts, Contexts, and Interpretations / Mary P.

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 descriptionNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780822342892Contents: The Academy and Motion Pictures / Lee Grieveson, Haidee Wasson

An investigation of the dynamics of cultural policy formation : the state's patronage of film production in Australia 1970-1988 / by Thomas Vincent O'Donnell Melbourne: RMIT, 2005.
Call No: 205 ODOAuthor: O'Donnell, Thomas V. Source: ATPlace: MelbournePublisher: RMITPubDate: 2005PhysDes: 472 leaves, bound ; 30cm.Subject: PRODUCTION ; PRODUTION. AUSTRALIA ; AUSTRALIA ; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; GOVERNMENT AID. AUSTRALIA ; GOVERNMENT CONTROL. AUSTRALIA Summary: "In Australia, the decades of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s were times of a great nationalist revival and cultural self-discovery. In the visual arts, theatre, popular and classical music, and especially in cinema and television, a distinct Australian voice could be heard that was accepted as culturally valid and nationally relevant. The renaissance of local production for cinema and television was reliant on the patronage of the state, first the Commonwealth government with the establishment of the Australian Film Development Corporation and the Experimental Film and Television Fund in 1970 and, later, the Australian Film and Television School. Then from 1972 to 1978 each Australian state established a film support agency to extend that patronage and assure the state of a role in the burgeoning film industry. This thesis relates the stories of the creation and development-and in some cases demise-of those six state film agencies over the period 1970 to 1988. It identifies the influences that directed the creation of each state agency and proposes a qualitative model of the relationships between the influences. It then argues the applicability of the model to the formation of cultural policy in general in a pluralistic democratic society. It also argues that the state film agencies were more influential on national film industry policy than has hitherto been recognised." - ABSTRACTNotes: Presented as author's thesis (phd) - RMIT UniversityContents: -- introduction -- chapter one: locating the state -- chapter two: cinema and state --chapter three: South Australia -- chapter four: Victoria -- chapter five: Queensland -- chapter six: New South Wales -- chapter seven: Tasmania -- chapter eight: Western Australia -- chapter nine: A model of cultural policy -- chapter ten: conclusion -- bibliography -- appendices --

Italian Political Cinema : Figures of the Long '68 / Mauro Resmini Boston: University of Minnesota Press, 2022.
Call No: 745.2(450)RESAuthor: Resmini, Mauro Edition: 2022Place: BostonPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2022PhysDes: 302 pages : illustrated ; 22cmSubject: PASOLINI, PIER PAOLO ; BERTOLUCCI, BERNARDO ; ANTONIONI, MICHELANGELO ; BELLOCCHIO, MARCO ; RISI, DINO ; PETRI, ELIO ; POLITICAL FILMS ; POLITICS IN FILMS ; ITALY Summary: Traditionally, the definition of political cinema assumes a relationship between cinema and politics. In contrast to this view, author Mauro Resmini sees this relationship as an impasse. To illustrate this theory, Resmini turns to Italian cinema to explore how films have reinvented the link between popular art and radical politics in Italy from 1968 to the early 1980s, a period of intense political and cultural struggles also known as the long ’68.
Italian Political Cinema conjures a multifaceted, complex portrayal of Italian society. Centered on emblematic figures in Italian cinema, it maps the currents of antagonism and repression that defined this period in the country’s history. Resmini explores how film imagined the possibilities, obstacles, and pitfalls that characterized the Italian long ’68 as a moment of crisis and transition. From workerism to autonomist Marxism to feminism, this book further expands the debate on political cinema with a critical interpretation of influential texts, some of which are currently only available in Italian.
A comprehensive and novel redefinition of political film, Italian Political Cinema introduces its audience to lesser-known directors alongside greats such as Pasolini, Bertolucci, Antonioni, and Bellocchio. Resmini offers access to untranslated work in Italian philosophy, political theory, and film theory, and forcefully advocates for the continued artistic and political relevance of these films in our time. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781517911386Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Cover Page -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Contents -- Introduction.

Abrams, 2011) Summary: "Jeffrey Jacob "J. J." Abrams (b. 1966) decided to be a filmmaker at the age of eight after his grandfather took him on the back-lot tour of Universal Studios. Throughout his career, Abrams has dedicated his life to storytelling and worked tirelessly to become one of the best-known and most-successful creators in Hollywood. The thirty interviews collected in this volume span Abrams's entire career, covering his many projects from television and film to video games and theater. The volume also includes a 1982 article about Abrams as a teen sensation whose short film High Voltage won the Audience Award at a local film festival and garnered the attention of Steven Spielberg. Beginning his career as a screenwriter on films like Regarding Henry and Armageddon, Abrams transitioned into a TV mogul with hit shows like Alias and Lost. Known for his imaginative work across several genres, from science fiction and horror to action and drama, Abrams's most successful films include Mission: Impossible III; Star Trek; and Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which went on to become the highest grossing film of all time in the United States. His production company, Bad Robot, has produced innovative genre projects like Cloverfield and Westworld. Abrams also cowrote a novel with Doug Dorst called S. and, most recently, he produced the Broadway run of The Play That Went Wrong. In conversations with major publications and independent blogs, Abrams discusses his long-standing collaborations with others in the field, explains his affinity for mystery, and describes his approach to creating films like those he gravitated to as a child, revealing that the award-winning director-writer-producer is a fan before he is a filmmaker."-- FROM BLURB.Notes: Includes index, includes filmography, includes chronology.ISBN: 9781496820426Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Beardless Wonders of Film Making - Robert Young/1982 -- From the Archives: J.

More amazing, all were critical and/or box office successes. What accounts for this explosion of interest? Much of the appeal of these films lies in our nostalgic desire at the end of the millenium for an age of greater politeness and sexual reticence. Austen's ridicule of deceit and pretentiousness also appeals to our fin de siècle sensibilities. The novels were changed, however, to enhance their appeal to a wide popular audience, and the revisions reveal much about our own culture and its values. These recent productions espouse explicitly twentieth-century feminist notions and reshape the Austenian hero to make him conform to modern expectations. Linda Troost and Sayre Greenfield present fourteen essays examining the phenomenon of Jane Austen as cultural icon, providing thoughtful and sympathetic insights on the films through a variety of critical approaches. The contributors debate whether these productions enhance or undercut the subtle feminism that Austen promoted in her novels." - BOOK JACKETNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 186-187) and indexISBN: 0813120845 (alk. paper)LON: 13891695Contents: Introduction: watching ourselves watching / Linda Troost and Sayre Greenfield -- Out of the drawing room, onto the lawn / Rachel M.

Utilizing a wealth of new material -- including interviews with Campion and her sister and personal writings of Campion's mother -- Fox traces the connections between the filmmaker's complex background and the thematic preoccupations of her films, from her earliest short, Peel, to 2009's Bright Star. He establishes how Campion's deep investment in family relationships informs her aesthetic strategies, revealed in everything from the handling of shots and lighting, to the complex system of symbolic images repeated from one film to the next.

The text takes a distinct approach to understanding Campion's films, positioning them not simply as the work of a cinematic auteur, but as the culmination of a complex set of textual relationships and practices. In doing so, Tincknell argues persuasively that the director's use of adaptation goes well beyond the conventionally respectful approach to literary texts, opting instead for a playful, subversive and challenging re-imagining of the connections between literature, myth, cultural identity and cinema." -- PORTION OF BOOK BLURBNotes: Contains bibliographic references and index -- list of illustrations included as looseleaf in front of bookISBN: 9780230229006Contents: -- pt.

It is the first book to cover the whole of Godard's career, from the early successes of the French New Wave, through the political works of the late 1960s and 1970s and the difficult films of the 1980s, to the recent triumphs of Histoire(s) du cinema and Eloge de l'amour. Drawing on a wide range of literary, filmic and philosophical texts, the book places Godard's work within its intellectual context in France, examining how developments in French culture and thought since 1950 have been mirrored in - and sometimes anticipated by - Godard's films. At the same time, numerous sequences from Godard's films are singled out for close analysis in order to demonstrate how the director's radical approaches to narrative, editing, sound and shot composition have made the cinema into an analytical tool in its own right - a machine for thinking. The book will be useful to all students of Godard's films, and of interest to scholars of modern and contemporary French cinema, culture and thought.

This is the first monograph, written in English, to be devoted to his cinema. It covers Skolimowski's career from his early successes in Poland, such as Identification Marks: None and Barrier, through his migr films, Deep End, Moonlighting and The Lightship, to his return to Poland where, in 2008, he made the internationally acclaimed Four Nights with Anna.
Ewa Mazierska addresses the main features of Skolimowski's films, such as their affinity to autobiographism and surrealism, while discussing their characters, narratives, visual style, soundtracks, and the uses of literature. She draws on a wide range of cinematic and literary texts, situating Skolimowski's work within the context of Polish and world cinema, and drawing parallels between his work and that of two directors, with whom he tends to be compared, Roman Polanski and Jean-Luc GodardNotes: "Berghahn on film"--Cover.

He shows John Ford to be a very successful director, from 1917, the period of silent movies, to 1966, a time when movies had become an important means of entertainment. He shows John Ford as a cantankerous, wily and brave man, who had a big influence on American cinema, and American social history, as a person who opposed McCarthyism, and who was wounded in the Second World War making documentary and propaganda films [Taken from the cover of the book]Notes: Also published : New York : Dial Press, 1979; Includes index; Filmography: p.229- 291ISBN: 0047910380

Call No: 81 HUG HONAuthor: Honeycutt, Kirk Source: Peter KempPlace: New YorkPublisher: Race Point PublishingPubDate: [2015]PhysDes: vii, 215 pages : illustrations (chiefly colour) ; 29 cmSubject: HUGHES, JOHN (US) ; FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF (US, John Hughes, 1986) ; PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES (US, John Hughes, 1987) ; BREAKFAST CLUB, THE (US, John Hughes, 1985) ; PRETTY IN PINK (US, Howard Deutch, 1986) ; SIXTEEN CANDLES (US, John Hughes, 1984) ; WEIRD SCIENCE (US, John Hughes, 1985) ; HOME ALONE (US, Chris Columbus, 1990) Summary: Hughes allegedly wrote Ferris Bueller's Day Off in four days, Planes, Trains and Automobiles in three days, The Breakfast Club in two days, and Vacation in a week. He never went to film school or studied cinema. And he spent most of his incredible career in the Midwest, far from the Hollywood Hills. John Hughes was indeed one of the most prolific and successful filmmakers in Hollywood history. He helped launch the careers of Andrew McCarthy, Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, Macaulay Culkin, and Judd Nelson. He made John Candy a household name. In this first illustrated tribute to the legendary filmmaker, author Kirk Honeycutt offers a behind-the-scenes look at the genius that was John Hughes--from his humble beginnings in direct mail to his blockbuster success with classics like Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, and Home Alone. Honeycutt also explores the darker side of John Hughes: his extreme sensitivity, his stormy professional relationships, and the devastation Hughes experienced after the death of his closest friend, John Candy. This book features fresh interviews with Matthew Broderick, Ally Sheedy, Judd Nelson, Steve Martin, and Jon Cryer, and a foreword from Home Alone director Chris Columbus.
"I stumbled into this business, I didn't train for it. I yelled "Action!" on my first two movies before the camera was turned on." - John HughesJohn Hughes wrote 46 movies, produced 23, and directed 8. He never went to film school, never spent time studying film and its history, but was unusually adept in three key areas °´4 writing, directing and producing.Classics like Mr. Mom; Sixteen Candles; The Breakfast Club; European Vacation; Weird Science; Pretty in Pink; Ferris Bueller's Day Off; Planes, Trains, and Automobiles; Uncle Buck; Christmas Vacation; Home Alone; and Beethoven will forever live on in the history of film. Launching the careers of Andrew McCarthy, Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, and James Spader, and working with greats like John Candy and Chevy Chase, John Hughes's influence can still be felt today.John Hughes: A Life in Film, by Kirk Honeycutt, former chief film critic at The Hollywood Reporter, is the first complete illustrated tribute to the legendary writer and director, and includes fresh interviews with Judd Nelson, Matthew Broderick, Christopher Columbus, Steve Martin, and moreNotes: Includes John Hughes filmography (page 201).

His theory was at every point elaborated in direct, vigorous relation with practice; his doctrine of kino-eye, breaking with film's subjection to traditional narrative purposes, was a passionate call to action. Vertov's spirit of revolutionary optimism leaps from his pages. Articles, memoranda, speeches, letters, proposals for films, poured from his pen - explaining, defining, persuading. In voluminous notebooks and diaries he proposed a cinema implicated in the process of revolutionary transformation, one that would play a leading role in the construction of socialism." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Filmography: p.

It examens humanity's highly charged relationship with primates and draws connections between debates about evolution, race, aesthetics and sex - from satirical cartoons of gorillas in Punch! to HR Hopp's famous World War One recruiting poster Destroy this mad brute: enlist, which shows Kaiser Wilhelm as a large ape. Many incarnations of the Beauty and the Beast tale in art and film unfold in Kiss of the Beast - from French artist Emmanuel Fremiet's sculptures of a gorilla carrying off a woman of 1859 and 1887, to the classic 1933 image o Fay Wray in the grip of King Kong. Early short films and animations; groundbreaking expeditionary documentaries; iconic 'monster' movies from 130s to 1950s Hollywood; and some of the many versions of the Kong story from America, Japan and Hong Kong are also featured. Kiss of the Beast: From Paris Salon to King Kong is richly illustrated with film stills from many famous big ape and monster movies - including King Kong, Frankenstein and Creature from the Black Lagoon - as well as posters, sculptures, painting, prints and rare books. This book was published in conjunction with 'Kiss of the Beast', an integrated exhibition and film program presented by the Australian Cinematheque, Queensland Art Gallery.ISBN: 1876509082Donation: Australian Cinematheque, Queensland Art Gallery

From The Matrix (1999) to Cloud Atlas (2012), they have left their mark as innovators in the industry, consistently pushing the boundaries of what is perceived as technically and topically possible in studio film. They are also the world's first major transgender film directors and arguably the most influential transgender cultural producers in human history. Their coming out makes possible a reevaluation of the Wachowskis' entire oeuvre as curating alternate approaches to gender, emobodiment, and perception, that might be retrospectively theorized as "trans." In this study, Cael Keegan will argue that the Wachowskis' work can be read as an aesthetic history of transgender political consciousness as it has evolved in popular media. He explores the significance of the Wachowskis as film and genre innovators who have permanently altered the technology and aesthetics of mainstream Hollywood cinema. Keegan sees the radical identities at play in many of their early films as emerging from a queer sensibility and and a hoped-for sense of the body's plasticity. Moving chronologically through the Wachowskis' filmography, he uses the films' theorization of gender and embodied identity at the intersection of convergence, virtuality, biopolitical surveillance and capitalist realism to open these much-discussed works to new modes of analysis" --Notes: "Lilly Wachowski was born in 1967 in Chicago as Andrew Wachowski" -- Libraries Australia; Lana Wochowski was born as Larry Wochowski - Libraries Australia; Alternate Names: The Wachowski Brothers or The Wachowskis; Includes bibliographical references, filmography, and index.ISBN: 9780252083839Contents: Trans opt: Received -- "You can believe what you feel": Bound -- Ecstatic passages: The Matrix -- Redpill -- Adventures in transreality: The animatrix -- Heroic ends: The matrix reloaded and The matrix revolutions -- Revolutionary guises: V for Vendetta -- Sensorial assault -- Fixed races: Speed racer -- Escaping history: Cloud atlas -- Speculative heights: Jupiter ascending -- Epilogue: event horizon: Sense8 --

They have also been among the most potent sources of creative inspiration for experimental filmmakers. Lessons in Perception melds film theory and cognitive science in a stimulating investigation of the work of iconic experimental artists such as Stan Brakhage, Robert Breer, Maya Deren, and Jordan Belson. In illustrating how avant-garde filmmakers draw from their own mental and perceptual capacities, author Paul Taberham offers a compelling for how their works expand the range of aesthetic sensitivity and open creative vistas uncharted by commercial cinema. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781785336416Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: List of Illustrations -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- PART I: COGNITION --Chapter 1.

His major thesis is that, on the contrary, film language has a social and economic history, that it evolved in the way it did because of when and where it was constructed - in the capitalist and imperialist west between 1892 and 1929. The book examines the chronology of the emergence of what it defines as cinema's Institutional Mode of Representation and the socio-historical circumstances in which this took place. It examines the principles of visualisation - camera placement and movement, lighting, editing, mise-en-scene - that film-makers and audiences came to internalize over the first three decades. Special emphasis is laid on the all-important change that occurred in the imaginary placing of the spectator, from a position of exteriority to the film image, implicit in both film-form and viewing conditions during the primitive era (pre-1909), to the imaginary centering of the spectator-subject, completed only with the generalisation of lip-synch sound after 1929. It is the contention of this book that this imaginary centering of a sensorily isolated spectator is the keystone of the cinematic illustion of reality, still achieved today by the same means as it was sixty years ago." - taken from back coverNotes: Revised versions of papers written 1976-1981, some of which have appeared in English and French magazines -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 274-283) and index -- Filmography: p. 284-305.ISBN: 0520071441Contents: Introduction -- Charles Baudelaire versus Doctor Frankenstein -- Life to Those Shadows -- The Wrong Side of the Tracks -- Those Gentlemen of the Lantern and the Parade -- Business is Business: An Invisible Audience -- Passions and Chases-A Certain Linearisation -- Building a Haptic Space -- A Primitive Mode of Representation? -- The Motionless Voyage: Constitution of The Ubiquitous Subject -- Beyond the Peephole, the Logos -- Narrative, Diegesis: Thresholds, Limits -- Conclusion -- Bibliography -- Filmography -- Index

DICKENS, CHARLES ; ADAPTATIONS. SHAKESPEARE, WILLIAM ; LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA ; POETRY AND THE CINEMA ; AGEE, JAMES ; EISENSTEIN, SERGEI M. ; FELLINI, FEDERICO ; GRIFFITH, DAVID WARK Summary: "Beginning with the simple but possibly crucial observation that, in general, literature and film are storytelling arts, Mr. Richardson presents a lucid and straightforward analysis arguing that film and literature are not the entirely different, antithetical disciplines that they are widely held to be. He shows clearly the relationship of film to literature, outlining differences as well as similarities, and common goals as well as divergent aims appropriate to the two arts, demonstrating how each form and its associated criticism is frequently able to illuminate and enliven the other. A film's consciousness sharpens the reader's alertness to the visual and aural qualities that mark much great writing, and literary training, in turn, adds depth and perspective to appreciation of film. Mr. Richardson goes on to present some of the literary influences, such as the writings Dickens and Flaubert, that have significantly affected film since the era of D.W. Griffith, and he discusses film's major influences on modern literature. The author concludes with an extended exploration of the relationship of film to poetry, suggesting that while the two forms have been concerned with similar thematic material and make use of similar techniques, film has dealt more significantly with the question of how to find a humane, noncoercive order in life.Notes: Bibliography: p. 133-142ISBN: 0253148456LON: 72085098; 589352

The films discussed in textual depth transcend literal lost in the bush mythologies, or actual cases of displaced children, to focus on vulnerable children renderedlost through government and institutional practices, and adult/parental characters developmentally arrested by comforting or traumatic childhood memories. The victory/winning fixation governing the USA – diametrically opposed to the lost child motif – is also discussed as a comparative example of the mesmerising nature of the cultural complex. Examining iconic characters and events, such as the Gallipoli Campaign and Trump’s presidency, and films such as The Babadook, Lion, and Predestination, this book scrutinises the way in which a culture talks to itself, about itself. This analysis looks beyond the melancholy traditionally ascribed to the lost child, by arguing that the repetitive and prolific imagery that this theme stimulates, can be positive and inspiring.
The Lost Child Complex in Australian Film is a unique and compelling work which will be highly relevant for academics and students of Jungian and post-Jungian ideas, cultural studies, screen and media studies. It will also appeal to Jungian psychotherapists and analytical psychologists as well as readers with a broader interest in Australian history and politics. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781138939691

Mr Elliot shows how haphazard the process of programme production is and how much it is constrained by the social and organisational framework in which it takes place. Of absorbing interest to all sociologists and students of the mass media as well as the general public, this book raises the challenging question of whether it is inevitable that television should be a reflective medium, or whether it can be a vehicle for the communication of new ideas and experiences.

AUSTRALIA ; WAR ON TV ; BURROWES, GEOFF ; DIXON, JOHN ; MILLER, GEORGE ; ANZACS [TV] (AT, Pino Amenta, John Dixon & George Miller, 1985) Summary: "They were the tallest soldiers of any army; the only all-volunteer fighting force and the best paid of all the troops in the Great War. Yet in 1914 when they marched away, they were considered a rag-tag lot, probably too ill-disciplined to be useful in war. The proud but tragic fiasco of Gallipoli changed that perception [...] Now the Great War is the backdrop of ANZACS, one of the most dramatic and important series ever made for Australian television. In five parts the ANZACS brings to life forgotten aspects of an immense conflict, and the men - and women too - who were swept up or overtaken by it. Here, vividly illustrated in text and in pictures, is an account of how that series was made; the powerful and moving stories told; the stars who portray the dignity, bravery and poignancy of yesterday's heroes."--BOOK BLURBNotes: "The major 9 network television series (produced by Geoff Burrowes and John Dixon)'--CoverISBN: 000636893XDonation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006

The Maltese touch of evil : film noir and potential criticism / by Shannon Scott Clute and Richard L. Edwards Hanover, N.H. ; London: University Press of New England, c2011.

Source: US/UKPlace: Hanover, N.H. ; LondonPublisher: University Press of New EnglandPubDate: c2011PhysDes: xviii, 316 p. : ill. ; 23 cmSubject: FILM NOIR ; CRITICISM ; THEORY ; PODCASTING Summary: "Noir is among the most popular, acclaimed, and critically assessed film styles of all time. The unfortunate consequence is an ever-growing divergence between fans and scholars with regard to goals and methods for appreciating and studying noir. The Maltese Touch of Evil aims to bridge that gap. Based on a series of popular podcasts, this unique and inspired investigation of film noir sets out to examine the case of noir more closely, and in the process reconfigures the critical evidence on noir that has been presented to date. The Maltese Touch of Evil reproduces and resequences nearly 150 still images from 31 great films, laying them out with the authors' informed and entertaining insights into the significance of each shot. The result is a de facto meta-film noir, a celebration of the genre that shows how these films are themselves "constrained' texts whose carefully calculated visual forms silmultaneously generate narrative and critical commentary on that narrative. You will never look at film noir the same way again." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references (p.

Co-productions are film projects where the division of labour, investments, talent, crew and production logistics are balanced between two or more countries. This thesis seeks to examine the current opinions and logistical frameworks which contribute to and govern the feasibility of co-productions. Interviews with Australian film industry professionals and textual analysis of government and non-government film texts will form the qualitative research basis of this project.

But today's culture critics see in the decade a period when heterosexual/homosexual dualism came to dominate the representation of American masculinity. Masked Men documents how movies of the 1950s represented masculinity as a multiple masquerade. Hollywood depicted the sexual anxieties of the domesticated breadwinner, the repudiation of wartime homoerotic male bonding, the exhibitionism of muscular bodies, the transvestic connotations of boyishness, and the playboy bachelor apartment. These presentations challenged the postwar ideal of the typical American male, that omnipresent and seemingly invisible Man in a Gray Flannel SuitNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

GERMANY ; CRITICISM ; THEORY ; KRACAUER, SIEGFRIED ; FRANKFURT SCHOOL Summary: This book is a celebration of the masses - their tastes, amusements, and everyday lives. Taking up the master themes of modernity, such as isolation and alienation, mass culture and urban experience, and the relation between the group and the individual, Kracauer explores a kaleidoscope of topics: shopping arcades, the cinema, bestsellers and their readers, photography, dance, hotel lobbies, Kafka, the Bible, and boredom. For Kracauer, the most revelatory facets of modern metropolitan life lie on the surface, in the ephemeral and the marginal. The Mass Ornament today remains a refreshing tribute to popular culture, and its impressively interdisciplinary essays continue to shed light not only on Kracauer's later work but also on the ideas of the Frankfurt School, the genealogy of film theory and cultural studies, Weimar cultural politics, and, not least, the exigencies of intellectual exile. This volume presents the full scope of his gifts as one of the most wide-ranging and penetrating interpreters of modern life. [Taken from back cover.]ISBN: 067455163X

The critics 'championed the cause of these movies and incited the cultural guardians of the day by attacking a rigorously policed canon of tasteful, rareified, and ossified art objects.
Against the legitimate and in the defense of the illegitimate, in an insolent and unruly manner, these critics agitated for the recognition of lurid sensational crime stories. War pictures, fast-paced Westerns, thillers, and gangster melodramas were claimed as examples of the true, the real, and the authentic in contemporary culture - the foundation upon which modern film studies sits.' - taken from Back CoverISBN: 9780813550626Contents: Introduction : yours till the boys come home -- Position papers : in defense of pulp movies -- A genealogy of pulp : Black mask to Mickey Spillane -- A world of small insanities : the critical reception of Kiss me deadly -- American primitive : Samuel Fuller's pulp politics -- Authenticating pulp : Jim Thompson adaptations and neo-noir -- Conclusion : hiding out in cinemas

'May you live normally ever after!' : popular film as pedagogy: Youth, Subjectivity & Australian cinema / by Kristina Gottschall 2011.
Call No: 409.1(94) GOTAuthor: Gottschall, Kristina Source: ATPubDate: 2011PhysDes: xiv, 347 p. : ill. (chiefly col.) ; 30 cmSubject: AUSTRALIA ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA ; YOUNG PEOPLE AND THE CINEMA ; YOUNG PEOPLE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA Summary: "This thesis is part of a move to rethink the normalising subjectivating processes that constitute the 'youth' subject. Through a conceptualisation of popular film as pedagogy and feminist and post-structuralist theories on subjectivity, popular film culture is considered as being profoundly geared towards the practices of subject formation and (self-)governmentality. As a context where we learn about the self, our culture and our place within it, popular film is understood as a profoundly pedagogical space and complex set of relationships where subjectivities are made and remade. Far from a simple act of transmission, film's knowledges and forms of address meet its audience but 'misfire' due to the indeterminate and unpredictable encounters between film/makers, audiences and cultural politics. The study begins by returning to key work on pedagogy and popular culture, by engaging in key debates between cultural studies and education. Drawing attention to pedagogy as modes of production and conditions of learning, this thesis asks how film as pedagogy might work and how such learning might occur. Reconceptualising Henry Giroux's notion of film as teaching machine through a 'post-critical' sense of pedagogy as relational, contextual and indeterminate (after Elizabeth Ellsworth and others), the dissertation mobilises a more nuanced pedagogy than is usually found in public pedagogies' scholarship from a critical theory perspective. Further, the work of Michel Foucault and Judith Butler are drawn on to argue that popular film is a technology of the self, geared towards subjectification."

Summary: "The themes of war and time are intertwined in unique ways in Japanese culture, freighted as that nation is with the multiple legacies of World War II: the country's militarization, its victories and defeats, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the uneasy pacifism imposed by the victors. Delving into topics ranging from the production of wartime propoganda to the multimedia adaptations of romance narrative, contributors to the fourth volume in the Mechademia series address the political, cultural, and technological continuum between war and the everyday time of orderly social productivity that is reflected, confronted, and changed in manga, anime, and other forms of Japanese popular culture." -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 9780816667499Contents: -- preface: war/time / Thomas Lamarre -- [Part 1].

J. Simpson arrest and pretrial hearings, the L.A. uprisings, the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas hearings, and the "family values" debate between Dan Quayle and Murphy Brown. He illustrates how African Americans, Korean Americans, Latinos, and women have succeeded in making their hitherto unheard voices heard and have influenced the nation's reaction to media events such as these. Fiske also analyzes speeches by George Bush, Dan Quayle, and Pat Buchanan, along with media commentary by Rush Limbaugh and CNN's Greg LaMotte, to reveal what Americans successfully rejected in ushering out the Reagan era. Through his analysis of the contradictory and diverse voices that make up U.S. culture, Fiske traces the nation's swing away from Reaganism and offers urgent warnings for the futureNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 269-273) and indexISBN: 0816624623 (acid-free paper)LON: 10867683

Contributors look at memory's representation, adaptaion, translation, and appropriation, as well as its mediation and remediation. Memory's irreducibly constructed nature is explored, even as its status is reaffirmed as the basis of both individual and collective identity. The book begins with an overview of the field, with an emphasis on the question of subjectivity. In separate sections, contributors examine literature and its relation to cultural memory; autobiography and life writing, especially those lives shaped by trauma and forgotten history; cinema and its intimate and mutually constitutive relationship with memory in the context of contemporary visual texts, at the crossroads of popular and avante-garde cultures." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781554589142Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2014Contents: pt.

Then came the Circus Maximus created by director Steven Spielberg, billionaire David Geffen, and Jeffrey Katzenberg (who gave the world The Lion King). Nothing in decades had approached the excitement surrounding the empire called DreamWorks, where hype, glory, and investors vying to kick in billions gave way to blowups, battles, and betrayals worthy of THE GODFATHER. Nicole LaPorte reveals for the first time the delicious truths of what happened behind the scenes. Readers will feel they are part of the creative calamities of moviemaking as LaPorte's fly-on-the-wall detail shows us Hollywood's bizarre rules of business. We see clashes between the often otherworldly Spielberg's troops and Katzenberg's warriors, the debacles and disasters, but also the Oscar-winning triumphs, such as SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. We see Geffen seducing investors and watch as the studio burns through billions while its rich owners get richer and everybody else suffers. Here is Hollywood - up close, glamorous, and gritty."

Given horror cuts across budgetary categories, industry sectors, national film cultures, and media, Merchants of Menace also promises to expand understandings of the economics of cinema generally. Covering 1930-present, this groundbreaking collection boasts fourteen original chapters from world-leading experts taking as their focus such diverse topics as early zombie pictures, post-WWII chillers, Civil Rights-Era marketing, Hollywood literary adaptations, Australian exploitation, "torture-porn" Auteurs, and twenty-first-century remakes." - Publisher's WebsiteNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued onlineISBN: 9781623564209Contents: -- Production lines, trends, and cycles.

The films are 'The Man From Snowy River', 'Sunday Too Far Away', 'We of the Never Never', 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' and 'The Plains of Heaven'. These five texts are examined in light of feminist theories dealing with subjectivity and representation. The analysis of the place and role of femininity within the texts is conducted through the examination of symbols and metaphors associated with the landscape which operate within the film structure. The thesis concludes that the Australian landscape is constructed within these films in such a way as to support the concept of a white, masculine Australian identity..." -- taken from summaryNotes: Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts, Centre for Womens Studies; Summary: [unpaged] at front of text; Typescript; Includes bibliographical references (leaves 104-110)LON: abn93171145; 10039377Contents: 1.

The book moves from broad historical and theoretical context, particularly theories of nation, emergent discourses of "mexicanidad" and the establishment and development of the Mexican industry, towards readings of key film texts and genres. Individual chapters discuss the relationship between Hollywood cinema and Mexican cinema, the stars of the "Golden Age," the role of foreign auteurs in the founding of Mexican cinema, tensions in the industry in the 1960s, and the national and international reception of contemporary films and film-makers. The author then examines the portrayal of Mexican nationhood through critical analysis of film genres including Revolutionary films, machismo and "mexicanidad," the prostitute, and the work of female auteurs.ISBN: 0415230101

Informal pieces, conversational in tone but grounded in three decades of authoritative research, the essays gathered here range from in-depth analyses of individual films such as Slumdog Millionaire and Inglourious Basterds to adjustments of Hollywood media claims and forays into cinematic humor. For Bordwell and Thompson, the most fruitful place to begin is how movies are made, how they work, and how they work on us. Written for film lovers, these essays- on topics ranging from Borat to blockbusters and back again - will delight current fans and gain new enthusiasts. Serious but not solemn, vibrantly informative without condescension, and above all illuminating reading, Minding Movies offers ideas sure to set film lovers thinking - and keep them returning to the silver screen.
