Opis

No national film industry on earth seems to have been subject to more constant surveillance, re-definition and re-direction than the Australian. This title reflects the remarkable diversity of Australia's feature film output since 1990 as it balances familiar box-office successes with many lesser-known movies. The book tracks some of the thematic shifts which have accompanied the re-definition of Australian filmmaking over several important issues, including gender and ethnic relations, the portrayal of masculinity, national identity, the landscape and environment used in films and the connection between cinema and television. The collection draws together both new and established writers in the field from Europe and Australia and includes a comprehensive filmography listing Australian feature film output in the 1990s.
