Film and terrorism go back a long way. The very birth of cinema in
the 1890s coincided with an early golden age of terrorism, as
bomb-throwing anarchists and nationalists captured headlines in
countries as far apart as France and India. "Cinematic Terror"
provides the first history of cinema's depiction of terrorism from
the early 1900s to the present day. It looks at how cinema has been
the site of conflict between filmmakers and terrorists for over a
century and identifies important trends in the ways that film
industries in Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and the
Middle East have framed terrorism. From the birth of moving
pictures to the internet age, the author explains how filmmakers
from around the world have depicted terrorists, have made money and
propaganda out of terrorism, and have died at the hands of
terrorists. Professor Shaw shows that for over a century, cinema
has had a profound impact on peoples' understanding of terrorism.
