The Screening of America: Movies and Values from Rocky to Rain Man
ISBN: 9781474287975 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is an original investigation of how movies have reflected and helped to shape the values of a generation. From All the President's Men to Wall Street, US films of the 1970s and 80s were a kaleidoscope of shifting values and contrasting moral viewpoints. Knowing that movies mirror the way we think we are - or would like to be - O'Brien focuses on the key values (or their absence) found in films from this period in order to see more clearly what Americans really cherished in life, and how these values have evolved or changed. Comprehensive and thought provoking,... This is an original investigation of how movies have reflected and helped to shape the values of a generation. From All the President's Men ... |
