Disaster and Memory: Celebrity Culture and the Crisis of Hollywood Cinema
ISBN: 9780231113175 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Using the media's coverage of the death of Princess Diana as a departing point, Wheeler Dixon presents a sharply critical assessment of the current state of movies--from the cult of celebrity, to the nature of public surveillance, to the role of print and television media in shaping our shared consciousness--unveiling our fascination with disaster. Dixon argues that movies such as James Cameron's Titanic replay the same Hollywood disaster plotlines with greater wizardry and less humanity than the films of fifty years ago. Contemporary cinema has become simply a memory of itself. Dixon...
