The Oxford Handbook of Children's Film is the most comprehensive
study of international children's cinema published to date.
Overturning common prejudices that films for children are unworthy
of serious attention, it presents nuanced and wide-ranging
discussions from senior and junior scholars alike of iconic and
neglected productions from Hollywood, Britain, France, Germany,
Sweden, Norway, Hungary, Australia, China, Japan, South Korea,
India, Iran, Kenya, and several other countries. Featuring
contributions by leading scholars in the field, the volume
considers a range of issues central to the study of children's
film, including questions of form and definition; representations
of childhood and growing up; music, stardom, and performance; how
children's films reflect national identity or serve as vehicles of
state ideology and propaganda; the phenomenon of Hollywood 'family
entertainment', especially the role of the Disney company; and how
children and young people (as well as older audiences) engage with
children's film culture. As a whole, the volume makes a substantial
contribution to the emerging field of children's film studies, and
will be of great interest to scholars of children's media and
culture more broadly.
