Post-War Hollywood Cinema is an accessible and comprehensive
history of the American film industry, from 1946 to 1962. Drew
Casper chronicles the restructuring of Hollywood cinema against the
backdrop of the major political, economic, and social changes
taking place after World War II.
The most complete of its kind, this innovative book looks at a
broad range of topics as it examines the cultural history, business
practices, new technologies, censorship standards, emerging genres,
and styles of postwar cinema. In-depth discussions of important and
often-neglected films illustrate the culture/filmmaking interface,
and demonstrate the triumphs and failures of Hollywood's new
methods. Casper also includes valuable footnotes and a select
bibliography.
An ideal text for students of time-specific and broad survey
courses, as well as for the home viewer devotee, Post-War Hollywood
is an entertaining resource for readers studying this unique period
of the American film industry.
