Shakespeare on Silent Film: A Strange Eventful History
ISBN: 9780415832106 / Angielski / Twarda / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

And Scandinavian directors are also among the best known, just to mention Ingmar Bergman and Lars von Trier. But there is much more to the cinema of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland than that, and this book shows us what they have been accomplishing over more than a century from the beginnings of...

Historical Dictionary of Film Noir
ISBN: 9780810859609 / Angielski / Twarda / 532 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Film noir--literally "black cinema"--is the label customarily given to a group of black and white American films, mostly crime thrillers, made between 1940 and 1959. Today there is considerable dispute about what are the shared features that classify a noir film, and therefore which films should be included in this category. These problems are partly caused because film noir is a retrospective label that was not used in the 1940s or 1950s by the film industry as a production category and therefore its existence and features cannot be established through reference to trade documents. The...
