In this book, scholars from across the world explore the
appearance, portrayal and significance of the suburb on film. By
the mid-20th Century, supported by changes in transportation,
suburbs became the primary location of entire national populations
and films about the suburbs began to concertedly reflect those
suburbs' significance as well as their increasingly lively
cultures! Suburbia very soon became filmurbia, as films of the
suburbs and those made in the suburbs reflected both the positive
and the negative aspects of burgeoning suburban life. Film-makers
explored the existences of new suburbanites, their interests, their
newly emerging neighbourhood practices, their foibles, their
fantasies and their hopes. Whether depicting love, ambition,
commerce, family, home or horror, whether traveling to or living in
suburban spaces, whether exhibiting beauty, brazenness or
brutality, the films of suburbia capture human life in all its
diverse guises.
