This book provides a detailed and engaging account of how Hollywood
cinema has represented and 'remembered' the Sixties. From late
1970s hippie musicals such as Hair and The Rose through to recent
civil rights portrayals The Help and Lee Daniels' The Butler,
Oliver Gruner explores the ways in which films have engaged with
broad debates on America's recent past. Drawing on extensive
archival research, he traces production history and script
development, showing how a group of politically engaged filmmakers
sought to offer resonant contributions to public memory. Situating
Hollywood within a wider series of debates taking place in the US
public sphere, Screening the Sixties offers a rigorous and
innovative study of cinema's engagement with this most contested of
epochs.
