Contemporary Hollywood Cinema (Paperback, New)

Nineteen leading film theorists dissect the so-called New Hollywood in terms of technology, idealogy and aesthetics. Their subjects range from the yuppie nightmare movie ('After Hours', 'Something Wild', 'Fatal Attraction') to the role of music in modern Hollywood, from the riches of independent black cinema to widescreen composition in the age of television. It's heavy going at times - we are, after all, in the rarefied world of film theory - but anyone interested in the development of American film since the early 1970s should derive ample reward from this book. (Kirkus UK)

A comprehensive overview of the film industry in Hollywood today, Contemporary Hollywood Cinema brings together leading international cinema scholars to explore the technology, institutions, film makers and movies of contemporary American film making.
