With ruminations on drawing, colour and caricature, on the
political meaning of fairy-tales, talking animals and human beings
as machines, Hollywood Flatlands brings to light the links between
animation, avant-garde art and modernist criticism. Focusing on the
work of aesthetic and political revolutionaries of the inter-war
period, Esther Leslie reveals how the animation of commodities can
be studied as a journey into modernity in cinema. She looks afresh
at the links between the Soviet Constructivists and the Bauhaus,
for instance, and those between Walter Benjamin and cinematic
abstraction. She also provides new interpretations of the writings
of Siegfried Kracauer on animation, shows how Theodor Adorno's and
Max Horkheimer's film viewing affected their intellectual
development, and reconsiders Sergei Eisenstein's famous handshake
with Mickey Mouse at Disney's Hyperion Studios in 1930.
