Hollywood vs. America
ISBN: 9780060924355 / Angielski / Miękka / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Why does our popular culture seem so consistently hostile to the values that most Americans hold dear? Why does the entertainment industry attack religion, glorify brutality, undermine the family, and deride patriotism? In this explosive book, one of the nation's best known film critics examines how Hollywood has broken faith with its public, creating movies, television, and popular music that exacerbate every serious social problem we face, from teenage pregnancies to violence in the streets. Michael Medved powerfully argues that the entertainment business follows its own... Why does our popular culture seem so consistently hostile to the values that most Americans hold dear?

For nearly five years Arthur Agee's and William Gates' remarkable lives were chronicled by a team of filmmakers.

Now journalist Ben Joravsky vividly brings to light all the richness and subtlety of their stories, and the impact their aspirations had on themselves, their families and their relationships. It is an intimate look, complete with an up-to-date epilogue on the...

Adams Sitney has once again revised and updated this classic work, restoring a chapter on the films of Gregory J. Markopoulos and bringing his discussion of the principal genres and major filmmakers up to the year 2000.

Hollywood Shot by Shot
ISBN: 9780202303444 / Angielski / Twarda / 309 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. To what extent have Hollywood feature films shaped the meanings that Americans attach to alcoholics, their families, and the alcoholic condition? To what extent has the mass culture of the movie industry itself been conceptually shaped by a broad, external societal discourse? Norman Denzin brings to his life-long study of alcoholism a searching interest in how cultural texts signify and lend themselves to interpretation within a social nexus. Both historical and diachronic in his approach, Denzin identifies five periods in the alcoholism films made between 1932 and the end of the 1980s,...

ISBN: 9780226116679 / Angielski / Miękka / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

The Comic Mind: Comedy and the Movies
ISBN: 9780226509785 / Angielski / Miękka / 377 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Although books on the comedies of the silent era abound, few have attempted to survey film comedy as a whole--its history and evolution, how the philosophical visions of its greatest artists and directors have shaped its traditions, and how these visions have informed both the meaning and manner of their work. Blending information with interpretation, description with analysis, Mast traces the development of screen comedy from the first crude efforts of Edison and Lumiere to the subtlety and psychological complexity of Annie Hall. As he guides the reader through detailed...
