20 years from the waist up : tales of a TV news anchor / by Richard Morecroft Sydney: HarperCollins, 2002. Call No: 81MOR MOR Author: Morecroft, Richard Source: AT Place: Sydney Publisher: HarperCollins PubDate: 2002 PhysDes: 285 p., [16]p. of plates : ill. (some col.), ports. (some col.) ; 24 cm Subject: AUSTRALIA; AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING CORPORATION; BROADCASTING. AUSTRALIA; NEWS PRESENTERS. AUSTRALIA; NEWS PROGRAMMES; NEWS PROGRAMMES. AUSTRALIA; TELEVISION; TELEVISION. AUSTRALIA; MORECROFT, RICHARD Summary: "Richard Morecroft is a familiar face in Australian homes... from the waist up! Now, in this collection of amusing anecdotes and surprising stories, Richard reveals the lighter side of life for a serious broadcaster. Why does our favourite news anchor have his own halo? Does a baby bat in his shirt help him read the headlines? And what's the worst mistake he's ever made on air? Then there are times when the public and private collide. Beaming into thousands of homes each night guarantees familiarity, but sometimes Richard gets more than he bargains for. Like being hugged and kissed in a lift by a complete stranger...Like being stalked in a car park by senior citizens...Like being accused of having a secret facelift...
Richard Morecroft has been the face of ABC television news for almost two decades. In addition to his familiar nightly news role, he has fronted current affairs and business programs, anchored election broadcasts, written and narrated wildlife and other documentaries, and hosted a range of educational producations.
... and what does he wear under the newsdesk?" -- BOOK BLURB ISBN: 0732275105 Contents: -- a bit below the belt -- foot in mouth disease -- a little nip and tuck -- the voice of god -- 'is that a flying fox in your pocket...?' -- the ties that blind -- 'im sorry, ill read that again -- getting on famously -- weather...or not -- sound system -- '...and it's good night from him' -- to sleep, perchance to...aargh! -- media exposure -- but I want to be a lion tamer! -- centrefolds and a cold shower -- animal antics -- write off! -- early daze -- twilight zone -- clive hale's eyebrow -- stage fright -- the truth, the whole truth... -- and that's the news to this minute -- richard's bio in brief --

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

Apocalypse-cinema : 2012 and other ends of the world / Peter Szendy; translated by Will Bishop; Foreword by Samuel Webber New York: Fordham University Press, 2015. Call No: 735.1 SZE Author: Szendy, Peter; Bishop, Will; Webber, Samuel Edition: 2015 Place: New York Publisher: Fordham University Press PubDate: 2015 PhysDes: xx, 160 p. : illustrations ; 22 cm Series: French Voices Subject: APOCALYPSE IN FILMS; MELANCHOLIA (DK/SW/FR/G, Lars von Trier, 2011); LAST MAN ON EARTH, THE (US/IT, Ubaldo Ragona, 1964); TERMINATOR, THE (US, James Cameron, 1984); 2012 [TWO THOUSAND AND TWELVE] (US/CN, Roland Emmerich, 2009); A.I: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (US, Steven Spielberg, 2001); WATCHMEN (US, Zack Snyder, 2009); SUNSHINE (UK/US, Danny Boyle, 2007); BLADE RUNNER (US, Ridley Scott, 1982); [TWELVE] MONKEYS (US, Terry Gilliam, 1995); ROAD, THE (US, John Hillcoat, 2009); BLOB, THE (US, Chuck Russell, 1988) Summary: Apocalypse-cinema is not only the end of time that has so often been staged as spectacle in films like 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, and The Terminator. By looking at blockbusters that play with general annihilation while also paying close attention to films like Melancholia, Cloverfield, Blade Runner, and Twelve Monkeys, this book suggests that in the apocalyptic genre, film gnaws at its own limit.
Apocalypse-cinema is, at the same time and with the same double blow, the end of the world and the end of the film. It is the consummation and the (self-)consumption of cinema, in the form of an acinema that Lyotard evoked as the nihilistic horizon of filmic economy. The innumerable countdowns, dazzling radiations, freeze-overs, and seismic cracks and crevices are but other names and pretexts for staging film itself, with its economy of time and its rewinds, its overexposed images and fades to white, its freeze-frames and digital touch-ups.
The apocalyptic genre is not just one genre among others: It plays with the very conditions of possibility of cinema. And it bears witness to the fact that, every time, in each and every film, what Jean-Luc Nancy called the cine-world is exposed on the verge of disappearing.
In a Postface specially written for the English edition, Szendy extends his argument into a debate with speculative materialism. Apocalypse-cinema, he argues, announces itself as cinders that question the “ultratestimonial” structure of the filmic gaze. The cine-eye, he argues, eludes the correlationism and anthropomorphic structure that speculative materialists have placed under critique, allowing only the ashes it bears to be heard. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780823264810

ASIAN COUNTRIES; WORLD CINEMA; BLOCKBUSTERS; ANIMATION; HORROR FILM; GHOST FILMS; EROTIC FILMS; EROTIC FILMS. 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 BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographic references and index; Includes filmography ISBN: 9781138815780 Contents: pt.

AUSTRALIA; TELEVISION; TELEVISION. AUSTRALIA; SOCIETY AND TV; SOCIETY AND TV. AUSTRALIA; ETHNIC GROUPS ON TV. 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." -- ABSTRACT Notes: Presented to the Creative Industries Faculty, Queensland University of Technology; Thesis (Ph.D.)--Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, 2004.

Birth of the binge : serial TV and the end of leisure Detroit, Michigan: Wayne State University Press, 2019. Author: Dennis Broe Edition: Broe, Dennis Source: US Place: Detroit, Michigan Publisher: Wayne State University Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: xiii, 297 pages ; 23 cm Series: Contemporary approaches to film and media series Subject: TELEVISION; CRITICISM Summary: "Broe's book is scholarship that matters: he diagnoses our addictive era of 'binge TV' while highlighting possibilities for resistance. Connecting multiple aspects of the current television industry--from its pumped-up levels of sex and violence to its influence on neural and relational patterns--to the rise of the neoliberal state, Broe dismantles the illusion that television's 'post-network era' offers new freedom to the consumer. The genius of this book comes in its dizzying sweeps from one medium to another: he convinces us that serial narrative is one of the dominant narrative forms in Western mass culture, charts its aesthetic and industrial complexity, and celebrates television auteurs like Joss Whedon, J.J. Abrams, and Jane Campion, whose progressive serial narratives provide us with 'a more social and more coherent representation of an ever more perilous reality." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliography and index ISBN: 9780814345269 Language: English Donation: Senses of Cinema Contents: Introduction -- 1.

AUSTRALIA; CHILDREN'S TELEVISION FOUNDATION; AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING CORPORATION; AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING COMMISSION; GYNGELL, BRUCE; EDGAR, PATRICIA; WINNERS (AT, 1984 -); ROUND THE TWIST [TV] (AT, 1988-) Summary: This is a candid memoir written by one of Australian television’s most influential policy makers and regulators. Dr Edgar reminisces about her childhood in Mildura and charts her rise in the television industry, particularly as an innovator in Australian children’s television production. She also gives a detailed account of her position as the first woman appointed to the Australian Broadcasting Control Board, and how for over ten years, she fought for more locally produced children’s television content. As a result of this, Dr Edgar helped to establish the Australian Children’s Television Foundation in the early 1980s, and has since gone on to collaborate with the BBC, Disney and Revcom in a series of co-productions. Bloodbath also takes into account the author’s struggles and triumphs in the Australian Television industry, especially with political and economic change, and the impact of the global marketplace. Notes: Includes index.

Boxed in : the culture of TV / by Mark Crispin Miller Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 1989. Call No: 62(04)(73) MIL Author: Miller, Mark Crispin Edition: 3rd ed. Source: US Place: Evanston, IL Publisher: Northwestern University Press PubDate: 1989 PhysDes: 349 p. : ill. ; 23 cm Subject: FILM; MEDIA; TELEVISION; NATIONAL CULTURE AND TV; USA; COSBY SHOW, THE [TV] (US, 1984-92); SUSPICION (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1941) Summary: "These twenty essays written over the past decade comprise an unusual study of the American media spectacle. Here are readings of cinema, advertising, rock music, and -above all - television, a force now so pervasive that it almost seems invisible.
The book is divided into four sections. The first and longest - "What's On TV" - is a collection of twelve essays on some of TV's best-known images. The essays in the next section, "Rock Music: A Success Story," define the trajectory of rock and roll from its exhilarating take-off in the Fifties to its eventual descent into just another form of show business. In "The Promise of Cinema" Miller deals variously with the issue of sexism in the movies, then moves on to an analysis of Alfred Hitchcock's particular response to the problem of mass spectatorship. The book ends with "Overviews," two long essays on the elimination of critical consciousness from our culture.
Each pieces not only offers an intensive analysis of some well-known visual moments - a soap commercial, Bill Cosby's face, Darth Vader glimpsed suddenly without his helmet - but also moves far beyond that rich particular to show how it illuminates the larger forces that produced it. Throughout Boxed In Miller sets a critical example - to show we can, and must, think out loud against the universal pressure of TV" -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 333-335; Includes index ISBN: 080107929 Contents: -- list of illustrations -- acknowledgments -- introduction: the hipness unto death -- what's on TV -- massa, coming home -- getting dirty -- "family feud" -- off the prigs -- Cosby knows best -- virtu, inc -- a viewer's campaign diary, 1984 -- sickness on TV -- patriotism without tears -- "the air of expectancy was bursting at the seams" -- black and white -- how TV covers war -- rock music: a success story -- where all the flowers went -- the king -- the promise of cinema -- the lives of the stars -- Tom Mix was a softie -- in memoriam - A.J.H -- Hitchcock's suspicions and Suspicion -- overviews -- the robot in the western mind -- big brother is you, watching -- index --

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.

Yet the disruptive power of the child in films made for an adult audience has been a neglected topic. The Child in Film examines popular films including Taxi Driver, Man on Fire, and contemporary Japanese horror, as well as "art house" productions such as Mirror, La Jeté, and Pan's Labyrinth, and questions why the figure of the child has such a significant impact on the visual aspects and storytelling potential of cinema.
Karen Lury argues that the child as a liminal yet powerful agent has allowed filmmakers to play adventurously with cinema's formal conventions, with far-reaching consequences. She reveals how a child's relationship to time allows it to disturb conventional master-narratives and explores how the concern for and investment in the child actor conceals the reality of film acting and the skills of the child performer. She addresses the expression of child sexuality, and questions existing assumptions as to who children "really are." -- pulisher's web site ISBN: 9780813548968

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.

Offering fresh critical perspectives and extending previous scholarship, case studies range from The Lego Movie, Mad Max and Australian stars in Hollywood, to transnational co-productions, YouTube channels, transmedia and naturecam documentaries. New research on trends such as the Blak Wave, the convergence of television and film, digital transformations of screen production and the shifting roles of women, on and off-screen, highlight how established precedents have been transformed by new realities beyond both cinema and national borders. --
Written in an accessible style that does not require knowledge of cinema studies or Australian studies. --
Presents original research on Australian actors such as Cate Blanchett and Chris Hemsworth, evaluating their training, branding and path from Australia to Hollywood. --
Explores the films and filmmakers of the Blak Wave and their challenge to Australian settler-colonial history and white identity. --

Doctor Who : A critical reading of the series London: bfi Publishing, 2005. Call No: 79DOC NEW Author: Kim Newman Place: London Publisher: bfi Publishing PubDate: 2005 PhysDes: 19 cm; 138 cm Series: BFI TV Classics Subject: DOCTOR WHO [TV] (UK, 1963-1989); TELEVISION. UK Summary: From 1963 to 1989, for the most part at teatime on Saturdays on BBC1, Doctor Who was a British TV institution. The series had its roots in British science fiction but grew to take in many other influences: historical drama, Hammer horror, satire, conspiracy thriller, even pantomime. Over the years, it developed a uniquely eccentric style, at once cosily familiar and cosmically terrifying, and many of its characters, creatures and objects have become iconic – the Doctors and his assistants, the TARDIS, the Time Lords, and a panoply of monsters and villains: Cybermen, Ice Warriors, the Master, and, of course, the Daleks…. Kim Newman’s comprehensive study follows the Doctor’s travels through time and space, placing Doctor Who in the context of science-fiction television, and traces the history of the show through its outstanding stories and its recurring themes, from its highs (Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker) to its lows (K-9, Bonnie Langford, and cancellation) and suggests why the programmer has become an enduring television masterpiece and a cultural phenomenon.

AMOUR DE SWANN, UN; AMOUR DE SWANN, UN (FR/GW, Volker Schlondorff, 1984) Summary: ...Refuting the commonly held view that film adaptations are in most ways inferior to the works on which thay are based, the author contendsthat film is an art eminently capable of translating a novel, not only in plot and theme but in style, technique and effect. And it can also do so without destroying the original work... or emerging as a second-rate version of the printed word.
Providing a close-up study of the ways in which adaptation may serve as a successful, even superlative, interpretation of literature, Double Exposure examines the aesthetics, the history, and the contemporaryresults of moviemakers' use of fiction in film. Here is an eye-opening of contemporary films that succeed, fail, or even transcend their literary source when two parallel art forms join forces at the movie.

From the children's story about the restoration of a Tiger Moth biplane, "Tail of a Tiger "(1984), to his break-out cult sensation " Bad Boy Bubby" (1993) which "tore Venice apart," to the first Aboriginal Australian language film "Ten Canoes" (2006) which scooped the pool at the AFI awards and won the Special Jury prize at Cannes Film Festival, de Heer has been consistently unpredictable. However, Starr's close study of his work suggests that Australia's most innovative and respected Arthouse film-maker has a signature pre-occupation with giving a voice to marginalized, non-hyper-masculine protagonists. Demonstrating a propensity to write and direct in a European-like style, de Heer's "Dutch tilt" is very much non-mainstream Hollywood, but is nevertheless representative of a typically Australian world-view." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 90-104) ISBN: 9783639168341

Call No: 747.4 HAR Author: Harwood, Sarah Source: UK Place: Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hamps Publisher: Macmillan PubDate: 1997 PhysDes: x, 265p. ; 23cm Subject: FAMILY IN FILMS; SOCIAL-REALISM IN FILMS; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA; SOCIOLOGY AND THE CINEMA; BARRYMORE, DREW; BRIDGES, LLOYD; CLOSE, GLENN; DOUGLAS, MICHAEL; GRAVES, PETER; NIELSEN, LESLIE; WILLIS, BRUCE; E.T. THE EXTRA TERRESTRIAL (US, Steven Spielberg, 1982); FATAL ATTRACTION (US, Adrian Lyne, 1987); AIRPLANE (US, Jim Abrahams & David Zucker & Jerry Zucker, 1980); TERMS OF ENDEARMENT (US, James L. Brooks, 1983) Summary: What do ET, Fatal Attraction and Look Whos Talking have in common? . As well as being amongst the most popular films at the UK box office of recent years all three represent dysfunctional families, families which profoundly transgressed contemporary ideological norms. The eighties were a decade in which the family occupied a pivotal position in an increasinglingly complex social and moral universe and film itself enjoyed a resurgence. Sarah Harwood argues that Hollywood cinema engaged with debates over the' crisis in the family' in intense and complex ways, both feeding and resisting dominant social mythologies In a fascinating analysis of films as diverse as 'Aiplane!' and 'Terms of Endearment' Family Fictions maps the functions, paradoxes and pleasures of familial representations in recent times. These startling analyses shed light on power and gender relations in contemporary cinema as well as on how the films themselves engaged with their broader cultural contexts Notes: Filmography : p. 248-252; Bibliography : p. 253-258; Includes index ISBN: 0333648439 (hbk); 0333648447 (pbk)

Why do so many of the films described as adaptations seem to derive from canonical literature rather than from other sources? How do the different media affect the ways stories are told? Film Adaptation offers fresh approaches to the art, theory, and cultural politics of movie adaptations, even challenging what is meant by the term "adaptation" itself. Contributors examine the process of adaptation in both theory and practice, discussing a wide variety of films. James Naremore's introduction provides an accessible historical overview of the field and reveals the importance of adaptation study to the many different academic disciplines now attracted to the analysis of film as commodity, document, and cultural artifact." -- BOOK BLURB

The films of the eighties : a social history / William J. Palmer Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 1993. Call No: 409 PAL Author: Palmer, William J. Source: US Place: Carbondale Publisher: Southern Illinois University Press PubDate: 1993 PhysDes: xv, 335 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Subject: HISTORY OF CINEMA. 1980's; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA; VIETNAM WAR IN FILMS; WAR AND THE CINEMA; NUCLEAR WARFARE IN FILMS; TERRORISM AND THE CINEMA; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA Summary: "In this remarkable sequel to his Films of the Seventies: A Social History, William J. Palmer examines more than three hundred films as texts that represent, revise, parody, comment upon, and generate discussion about major events, issues, and social trends of the eighties. Palmer defines the dialectic between film art and social history, taking as his theoretical model the 'holograph of history' that originated from the New Historicist theories of Hayden White and Dominick LaCaprra. In the eighties,such issues included the war in Vietnam, the preservation of the American farm, terrorism, nuclear holocaust, changes in Soviet-American relations, neoconservative feminism, and yuppies. Among the films Palmer examines are Platoon, The Killing Fields, The River, Out of Africa, Little Drummer Girl, Kiss of the Spiderwoman, Silkwood, The Day After, Red Dawn, Moscow on the Hudson, Troop Beverly Hills, and Fatal Attraction. Utilizing the principles of New Historicism, Palmer demonstrates that film can analyze and critique history as well as present it." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9780809320295 Contents: The holograph of history -- The Vietnam War as film text -- The "coming home" films -- The terrorism film texts -- The nuclear war film texts -- From the "evil empire" to Glasnost -- The feminist farm crisis and other neoconservative feminist texts -- The yuppie texts -- Film in the holograph of new history

The author's incisive style produces images and powerful stories whose strength remains undiminished by the passing years. This book is not an inventory of the subjects the program has tackled, nor does it catalogue all the people who have made Four Corners the extraordinary success story it is. Robert Pullan, himself a journalist and author, went to people who had worked for Four Corners to find his material, to past and present Four Corners journalists who selected highlights of their work. 'No one program has the power by itself to widen the agenda of public debate' Pullan says, 'but it seemed to me that Four Corners had been on the cutting edge of major changes and that it would be interesting to tell the story from this perspective'.

DAS WEISSE BAND - EINE DEUTSCHE KINDERGESCHICHTE; WEISSE BAND, DAS - EINE DEUTSCHE KINDERGESCHICHTE (AU/G/FR/IT, Michael Haneke, 2009) Summary: "Taking its cues from the cinematic innovation of the controversial Austrian-born director Michael Haneke, Funny Frames explores how a polical thinking manifests itself in his work. Funny Frames does justice to the intelligence of Haneke films by exploring the permanent adjustment of the frame of reference in these films: the moment when the "looking at" of the viewer is suddenly revealed to be the "looking with" the perspective of a character. The book is divided into two parts. In the first, Oliver C. Speck explores some of Haneke's Deleuzian traits - showing how the theoretical concepts of the virtual, of filmic space and of realism can be useful tools for unlocking the problems that Haneke formulates and solves through filmic means. In the second, Speck discusses a range of topics that appear in all of Haneke's films but that haven't, until now, been fully noticed or analyzed. These chapters demonstrate how Haneke plays the role of "diagnostician of culture," how he reads - for example - madness, suicide and childhood. Like several other contemporary European directors, Haneke addresses topics considered difficult when measures by the standards of commerical cinema: the traumatic effects of violence, racism, and alienation. Funny Frames is an incisive and original contribution to the growing scholarship on one of the most intriguing auteurs of our time.

Penley analyzes the primary movements that have shaped the field: the conjunction of feminism, film theory, and psychoanalysis, and the inherent debates surrounding the politics of women and representation.

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.

Guide to pay TV anti-siphoning provisions / Australian Broadcasting Authority Sydney: Australian Broadcasting Authority, 1996. Call No: 303.333(94) AUS Author: Australian Broadcasting Authority Source: AT Place: Sydney Publisher: Australian Broadcasting Authority PubDate: 1996 PhysDes: 31 pages ; 30 cm Subject: PAY TV. AUSTRALIA; AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTING AUTHORITY; TELEVISION. AUSTRALIA; BROADCASTING RIGHTS. AUSTRALIA; BROADCASTING. AUSTRALIA; LEGISLATION. AUSTRALIA; LICENSING LAWS. AUSTRALIA; SPORT AND TV. AUSTRALIA; SPORT ON TV. AUSTRALIA Summary: "This guide provides an overview of anti-siphoning provisions contained in the [Broadcasting Services] Act and outlines a number of issues which have arisen since the anti-siphoning list came into force. The Act sets out the rules that are designed to prevent 'siphoning' of certain programs broadcast on national and commercial television (free-to-air television) and gives particular powers to the ABA and to the Minister in relation to the operation of these rules. Siphoning means the obtaining by a pay TV licensee of the exclusive rights (i.e. both free-to-air and pay TV rights) to broadcast an event (or events), such that those events could not be received on free-to-air television and would only be available to subscribers of the pay TV service. Without fettering the Minister's discretion to exercise his powers, this guide indicates how the ABA will approach certain situations. The ABA hopes this will provide guidance to parties wishing to negotiate rights to events that may be broadcast on Australian free-to-air or pay-tv services." - Introduction Contents: Definitions -- Development of guidelines -- Introduction -- Anti-siphoning provisions -- Role of the ABA -- Role of the minister -- Limitations of anti-siphoning list in the case of newly created events -- Other issues arising from the operation of the anti-siphoning list -- Attachements: anti-siphoning list and amendments; extracts Broadcasting Services Act 1992; Directions to the ABA; Consideration of terms and phrases contained in section 115 examples

Hearths of darkness : the family in the American horror film / Tony Williams Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, c2014. Call No: 735.2 WIL Author: Williams, Tony Edition: Updated ed. Source: US Place: Jackson Publisher: University Press of Mississippi PubDate: c2014 PhysDes: Tony Williams Subject: ADAPTATIONS. KING, STEPHEN; FAMILY IN FILMS; HORROR FILMS. USA; PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); POLTERGEIST (US, Tobe Hooper, 1982); POLTERGEIST II: THE OTHER SIDE (US, Brian Gibson, 1986); NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (US, Wes Craven, 1984); TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE, THE (US, Tobe Hooper, 1974) Summary: Hearths of Darkness traces the origins of the 1970s family horror subgenre
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 index ISBN: 9781628461909 Contents: 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'.

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 Tarantino Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

Call No: 81HIT BRU Author: Bruns, John Source: US Place: Evanston, Illinois Publisher: Northwestern Univesity Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: ix, 215 pages: illustrations; 23cm Subject: 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; THE CASE OF MR. PELHAM 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 BLURB Notes: Includes bibliography and index.

As a stand-alone television program, it ran for just thirty-nine weeks from 1955 to 1956, but its characters appeared in long-running sketches on Cavalcade of Stars and The Jackie Gleason Show and the program has lived on for generations in reruns and home video releases. David Sterritt investigates The Honeymooners as an enduring and valuable index of societal norms and televisual tastes in the 1950s - a project made all the more intriguing by the diverse ways in which The Honeymooners both reaffirms and diverges from the typical broadcast idioms of its day."-- LIBRARIES AUSTRALIA Notes: Contemporary approaches to film and television series.; TV milestones ISBN: 9780814333969 Donation: This book donated by Senses of Cinema, 2013 Contents: -- Introduction: "better living through TV" -- 1: "Principle of the thing": The honeymooners and postwar America -- 2: "Opportunity knocks, but": social and cultural issues -- 3: "Unconventional behavior": psychological perspectives -- 4: "You're in the picture": Honeymooners aesthetics -- Conclusion: "please leave the premises" -- notes -- bibliography -- videography -- index --

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.

James Cameron : interviews / edited by Brent Dunham Jackson: University of Mississippi, 2012. Call No: 81CAM JAM Author: Dunham, Brent Source: US Place: Jackson Publisher: University of Mississippi PubDate: 2012 PhysDes: xxxix, 219 p. ; 23 cm Series: Conversations with filmmakers series Subject: CAMERON, JAMES; TERMINATOR, THE (US, James Cameron, 1984); ALIENS (US, James Cameron, 1986); TITANIC (US, James Cameron, 1997); AVATAR (US, James Cameron, 2009) Summary: "James Cameron (b.1954) is lauded as one of the most successful and innovative filmmakers of the the last thirty years. His films often break records, both in their massive budgets and in their box-office earnings. They include such hits as The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss, Titanic, and Avatar. Part scientist, part dramatist, Cameron combines these two qualities into inventive and captivating films that often push the boundaries of special effects to accomodate his imagination. James Cameron: Interviews chronicles the writer-director's rise through the Hollywood system, highlighted by his "can-do" attitude and his insatiable drive to make the best film possible. As a young boy growing up in Canada, Cameron imagined himself an astronaut, a deep-sea explorer, a science fiction writer, or a filmmaker. Transplanted to southern California, he would go on to realize many of those boyhood fantasies. This collection of interviews provides glimpses of the filmmaker as he advances from Roger Corman's underling to "king of the world." The interviews are drawn from a number of sources including TV appearances and blog conversations, which have never been published in print. Spanning more than twenty years, this collection constructs a concise and thorough examination of James Cameron, a filmmaker who has almost single-handedly ushered Hollywood into the twenty-first century." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes index; Includes bibliographical references and index; Includes filmography ISBN: 9781617031328 Donation: Donated by Senses of Cinema, 2013 Contents: -- introduction -- chronology -- filmography -- How to direct a terminator / Thomas McKelvey Cleaver/1984 -- The 1984 movie revue: James Cameron interviewed by David Chute / David Chute/1985 -- Writer-director shows the special effect energy can radiate / JoAnn Rhetts/1986 -- Aliens: an out of this world communication with director James Cameron / Victor Wells/1986 -- James Cameron takes a plunge / Alan Jones/1989 -- James Cameron takes a second plunge / Alan Jones/1989 -- Aliens: James Cameron interview / Nigel Floyd/1992 -- The hero's journey / Syd Field/1992 -- Approaching the sequel / Syd Field/1992 -- Iron Jim / John H.

Subject: ART DIRECTION; HISTORY AND TV. AUSTRALIA; LOCATION SHOOTING. AUSTRALIA; PRE-PRODUCTION. AUSTRALIA; PRODUCTION, TV. AUSTRALIA; TELEVISION. 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 BLURB Notes: "The major 9 network television series (produced by Geoff Burrowes and John Dixon)'--Cover ISBN: 000636893X Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006

DeMille, 1956); RED RIVER (US, Howard Hawks, 1948) Summary: When we think of the films of the 1950s, we inevitably remember the confident swagger of John Wayne, the suave sophistication of Cary Grant, and the emotional intensity of Marlon Brando. 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 Suit Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

In America, we witness the birth of Hollywood, circa 1910, where film quickly became a powerful industry and D. W. Griffith put American cinema on the map; later, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton developed a new language of visual comedy while eccentrics like Erich von Stroheim and Cecil B. DeMille turned cinema into a high art form and show biz respectively, and sex symbols like Rudolph Valentino and Greta Garbo heated up the screens.
Meanwhile, in Europe, German directors such as Ernst Lubitsch and Fritz Lang were establishing their careers and Russian greats Eisenstein and Pudovkin were already revolutionizing a nascent art form. At the end of the 1920s the very first "talkies", albeit rudimentary ones, brutally crushed the silent art, but by 1930 sound masterpieces such as Sternberg's The Blue Angel and Milestone's All Quiet on the Western Front were produced. This exploration of the founding years of cinema offers a fascinating perspective on a period in movie history that is far too often overlooked in our times. -- jacket blurb ISBN: 9783822846131 Donation: Megan McMurchy

AUSTRALIA Summary: " 'I hope this thing will not come to Australia in my term of office', said Prime Minister Menzies in 1952. But it did. In 1956 Australia opened its first channel and began the long road that changed our way of life. Nickl Herd has written the first comprehensive history of the powerful, popular industry that is our commercial television: a brilliantly researched, independent account of the way the networks spread across the nation and of the revolution that accompanied them - the deals, the ratings, the advertisers, the protests, the tribunals, the regulation, the programs that won and lost fortunes. In Nick Herd's hands our television emerges as a social force, one which has brought us together in the lounge room, carried us out into the streets, told our stories, transformed our sports culture and captured our history, our politics and the world around us."-- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 329-362) and index ISBN: 9780980798265 Contents: -- the long road to television -- subscribers -- acknowledgments -- abbreviations --1: the coming of television -- 2: the government decides -- 3: the expansion of television services 1956-65 -- 4: the audience-commodity and program-supply markets -- 5: Reform of commercial television -- 6: structural change in the broadcast-station market -- 7: changing dynamics of program supply and audience 1974-1998 -- 8: convergence and incumbency -- 9: commerical television and the multimedia world -- appendices -- endnotes -- bibliography -- index --

The office : A critical reading of the series London: bfi Publishing, 2005. Call No: 79OFF WAL Author: Ben Walters Place: London Publisher: bfi Publishing PubDate: 2005 PhysDes: 19 cm; 184 p. Series: BFI TV Classics Subject: TELEVISION. UK; OFFICE, THE [TV] (UK, 2001); GERVAIS, RICKY Summary: When The Office first aired in July 2001, it attracted a tiny audience and BBC2’s lowest approval rating of the year (apart from women’s bowls). Some viewers even failed to identify the series as a comedy – and not without reason. Set in the banal environs of a Slough paper merchants and presented in deadpan ‘docusoap’ style, the series was built around neither one-liners nor farcical set-ups, but the painfully-observed minutiae of everyday life. Not much happened, and what did – the self-serving posturing of middle-manager and would-be entertainer David Brent, and the simmering flirtation between employees Tim and Dawn – was often excruciatingly uncomfortable to watch. Yet two series and a feature-length special later, The Office has broken DVD sales records, won dozens of awards, played in over sixty countries and been remade by a major American network. In the first full-length study of the show, Ben Walters traces its unorthodox journey to the screen, drawing on extensive interviews with those most closely involved in its production, from novice writer-directors Stephen Merchant and Ricky Gervais to BBC2 Controller Jane Root. The book also explores the series’ unusually potent effects from its attention to the discontents of contemporary working life to its sophisticated melding of docusoap and sitcom conventions.

Our friends in the north : A critical reading of the series London: bfi Publishing, 2005. Call No: 79OUR EAT Author: Michael Eaton Place: London Publisher: bfi Publishing PubDate: 2005 PhysDes: 19 cm ; 134 p Series: BFI TV Classics Subject: TELEVISION. UK; OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH [TV] Summary: Our Friends in the North (1996) is the kind of epic drama that has ensured the BBC’s worldwide reputation for seriousness and excellence. In nine parts, it tells the life stories of four friends – Mary, Nicky, Geordie and Tosker – from adolescence to middle age. Their personal triumphs and crises unfold against the backdrop of massive social and political change in Britain – in particular the rise of Thatcherism and the decline of Socialist ideals. Technically outstanding, Our Friends in the North is truly a ‘state of the nation’ drama, exploring its major themes alongside more specific ones (domestic violence, corruption in the police and local government, inequities in the criminal justice system) while developing its central characters with exceptional subtlety and finesse. Michael Eaton traces the history of Our Friends in the North: its origins in Peter Flannery’s 1982 play for the Royal Shakespeare Company and the long road to TV adaptation. Eaton, himself a screenwriter, has conducted lengthy interviews with Flannery, Executive Producer Michael Wearing and other key personnel, and this book provides a unique insight into the often labyrinthine ways in which TV drama is commissioned and produced. He goes on to locate the series in the genealogy of quality television drama, and he reflects on whether Our Friends in the North could ever be made today. Did the series bring to an end the Golden Age of British TV drama 0 and, if so, what have we lost in the process? [Taken from back cover.] ISBN: 1844570924

AUSTRALIA; FRASER, MALCOLM; GYNGELL, BRUCE; PACKER, KERRY; ALVIN PURPLE (AT, Tim Burstall, 1973) Summary: "In recent years the Australian Broadcasting Commission has been racked with storm and strife. The public mud-slinging and political gesturing that has kept it in the news have been accompanied by the simmering background of internal wars that affect the media monolith. Professor Richard Harding has been a man inside the ABC - among the men with the hottest seats and the best views of the bloody circus, the Commissioners. His brilliant observation of the events that have occurred in his time at the ABC gives a fresh insight into many of the issues that made headlines - the Bland affair, the staff commissioner, the continuing crisis and cries of "bias" in current affairs programmes, 2JJ and access radio, FM, the department of the media, the sports coverage tangle, etc. The effects of politics and government funding on the Australian Broadcasting Commission, and the role of the ABC as an opinion maker are seen in a realistic light from the centre of affairs." - BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographic references and index ISBN: 0725103159 Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006
