The innovations and debates in experimental film in the 1970s have
had far-reaching and long-lasting influence, with a resurgence of
interest in the decade revealed by new gallery events, film
screenings and social networks that recognise its achievements.
Professor Laura Mulvey, and writer/director Sue Clayton, bring
together journalists and scholars at the cutting edge of research
into 1970s radical cinema for this collection. Chapters are at once
historically grounded yet fused with the current analysis of
today's generation of cine-philes, to rediscover a unique moment
for extraordinary film production. Other Cinemas establishes the
factors that helped to shape alternative film: world cinema and
internationalism, the politics of cultural policy and arts funding,
new accessible technologies, avant-garde theories, and the
development of a dynamic and interactive relationship between film
and its audiences. Exploring and celebrating the work of The Other
Cinema, the London Film-makers' Co-op and other cornerstones of
today's film culture, as well as the impact of creatives such as
William Raban and Stephen Dwoskin - and Mulvey and Clayton
themselves - this important book takes account of a wave of
socially-aware film practice. Without this body of work, today's
activist, queer, minority and feminist voices in cinema would have
struggled to gather such impact.
