Film Noir
ISBN: 9780748691074 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

What drew original audiences to film noir is an immediate...

ISBN: 9781477308172 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 367 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. With sequels, prequels, remakes, spin-offs, or copies of successful films or franchises dominating film and television production, it sometimes seems as if Hollywood is incapable of making an original film or TV show. These textual pluralities or multiplicities--while loved by fans who flock to them in droves--tend to be dismissed by critics and scholars as markers of the death of high culture. Cycles, Sequels, Spin-offs, Remakes, and Reboots takes the opposite view, surveying a wide range of international media multiplicities for the first time to elucidate their importance for...

International Noir
ISBN: 9780748691104 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Following World War II, film noir became the dominant cinematic expression of Cold War angst, influencing new trends in European and Asian filmmaking. International Noir examines film noir's influence on the cinematic traditions of Britain, France, Scandinavia, Japan, Hong Kong, Korea and India.
This book suggests that the film noir style continues to appeal on such a global scale because no other cinematic form has merged style and genre to effect a vision of the disturbing consequences of modernity. International noir has, however, adapted and adopted noir themes and aesthetic elements...
