Much has shifted since the emergence of the first volume of
"Cinephilia in the Age of Digital Reproduction." Many of the
postmillennial innovations in digital cinema and digital culture
which prompted its publication have today become commonplace to the
point of invisibility. This development ironically evokes memories
of the classic Hollywood continuity system, a structure designed to
close off space for the discussion of politics, identity or
history. Thus, the original contributions in this new volume seek
to illuminate those larger historical and global contexts which the
emergence of digital cinema highlights in the process of its
erasure. Chapters cover everything from digital spectacles of the
US Civil Rights movement to the cinephiliac politics of Wong
Kar-Wai, from the transnational cinephilia of Bernardo Bertolucci
and Adrian Lyne to the cultural politics of race and media
transition in Michel Gondry's "Be Kind Rewind." Also included are
sustained discussions of what the digital age will mean in the long
term for the critical and academic study of film.
Contributors include Chris Cagle, David Church, Susan Felleman,
Kristi McKim, Adrian Martin, James Morrison, Ted Pigeon, Catherine
Russell, Greg Singh and Steve Spence.
