The Godfather
Jon Lewis, Oregon State University, USA Jon Lewis's study of The Godfather (1972) examines the film's audacious visual style and its principal themes: Vito and Michael's attempt to balance the obligations of business and family, their struggle with assimilation, the temptations and pitfalls of capitalist accumulation, and the larger drama of succession from father to son, from one generation to the next. Lewis's production history goes behind the scenes to uncover the film's real-life gangster backstory, and places it in the context of Hollywood's dramatic box-office turnaround in the early 1970s, revealing how The Godfather saved Paramount Studios and the rest of Hollywood as well. In his foreword to this new edition, Lewis revisits the iconic film and its lasting significance through the decades.

The Searchers
Edward Buscombe, film critic, UK John Ford's masterpiece The Searchers (1956) was voted the seventh greatest film of all time in Sight & Sound's most recent poll of critics and has had an enormous influence on many of America's most distinguished contemporary filmmakers. John Wayne's portrait of the vengeful Confederate Ethan Edwards gives the film a truly epic dimension, as does his long and lonely journey into the dark heart of America. Edward Buscombe's insightful study provides a detailed commentary on all aspects of the film, drawing on material in the John Ford archive at Indiana University to offer new insights into the film's production history.

Seven Samurai
Joan Mellen, Temple University, USA Joan Mellen's study of Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (1954) treats it both as a portrayal of the cultural upheaval brought on by the collapse of Japanese militarism in the 16th century, but also as a reflection of the sweeping cultural changes occurring in the aftermath of the American Occupation that followed Japan's defeat in the Second World War. Mellen contextualises Seven Samurai, marking its place in Japanese cinema and in Kurosawa’s film-making career. She explores the film’s roots in medieval history and, above all, the astonishing visual language in which Kurosawa created his elegiac epic.

D. A. Miller, University of California, Berkeley, USA
Federico Fellini's masterpiece 8 1/2 (Otto e mezzo) shocked audiences around the world when it was released in 1963 by its sheer auteurist gall. The hero, a film director named Guido Anselmi, seemed to be Fellini's mirror image, and the story to reflect the making of 8 1/2 itself. D.A. Miller's dazzling study argues that we can now see more clearly how tentative, even timid, Fellini's groundbreaking incarnation always was. Guido is a perfect blank, or is trying his best to seem one. 8 1/2's deepest commitment is not to this man (who is never quite 'all there') or to his message (which is lacking entirely) but to its own flamboyant manner. The enduring timeliness of 8 1/2 lies, Miller suggests, in its aggressive shirking of the shame that falls on the man – and the artist – who fails his appointed social responsibilities.

Colour Films in Britain
The Eastmancolor Revolution Sarah Street, University of Bristol, UK, Keith M. Johnston, University of East Anglia, UK, Paul Frith, University of East Anglia, UK & Carolyn Rickards, University of Bristol, UK Colour Films in Britain examines the role of the Eastmancolor process in relation to key areas of British cinema since the 1950s; including its economic and structural histories, different studio and industrial strategies, and the wider aesthetic changes that took place with the mass adoption of colour. By analysing the use of colour in films such as Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and Goldfinger (1964), the book traces the adoption of Eastmancolor in British Film and considers its lasting significance as one of the most important technical innovations in film history.

Cinema's Melodramatic Celebrity
Film, Fame, and Personal Worth Mandy Merck, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK Challenging the study of both celebrity and the cinema, Cinema's Melodramatic Celebrity argues that modern fame and film melodrama are part of the same worldview, one that cannot resolve the relation of personal worth to social esteem. Examining a range of classical and contemporary films from Charlie Chaplin's City Lights (1931) to the many remakes of A Star Is Born, Mandy Merck illustrates the ways in which cinema constantly restages the moral evaluation of prominent individuals, whether they are actors, artists, politicians or activists.

Impressions of Cinema
This book introduces a new way of thinking about color in film, as distinct from existing approaches which tend to emphasize either technical processes or histories of film coloration, or the meaning of color as metaphor or symbol. Murray Pomerance regards the various ways of thinking about color; not ways of framing it as a production trick or a symbolic language, but ways of wondering how the color effect on-screen can work in the act of viewing itself.

The Art of Czech Animation
A History of Political Dissent and Allegory Adam Whybray, University of Suffolk, UK This is the first book to specifically examine Czech animated cinema, stretching from the immediate post-war works of Jirí Trnka and Hermína Týrlová, through Jan Švankmajer's internationally recognised stop-motion projects, to contemporary animations by the likes of Michaela Pavlátová and Jan Balej. The book's central argument is that the political messages of these films are communicated primarily through on-screen objects and things, rather than through dialogue or narration.

Uttam Kumar A Life in Cinema
Sayandeb Chowdhury, Ambedkar University, Delhi, India This is the first definitive cultural and critical biography of Uttam Kumar. It engages meaningfully with his life and his cinema, revealing the man, hero and actor from various, often competing, vantages. The conceptual aim is to locate a star figure within a larger historical and cultural context, and to enquire into how a towering image was mobilised for an ever-greater pursuit of wholesome, popular, even at times, radical and progressive entertainment. A complimentary métier of this work is to explore why and how this star persona would go on to reconstitute the bhadrolok Bengali visual and cultural world in the post-Partition period.

Kevin Wynter, Pomona College, USA
This book provides a concise introduction to critical race theory and shows how this theory can be used to interpret Jordan Peele’s Get Out. Its analysis of Get Out is organized into three sections – Sub/ urban Space, The Black Body, and The Sunken Place – illustrating how contemporary debates in critical race theory and approaches to the analysis of mainstream Hollywood cinema can illuminate each other. In this way, the book provides both an accessible reference guide to key terminology in critical race studies and film studies, while contributing new scholarship to both fields.

Positioning Art Cinema Film and Cultural Value
Geoff King, Brunel University London, UK In Positioning Art Cinema, Geoff King argues that there is no single definition of art cinema, but a number of distinct and recurrent tendencies are identified. At one end of the spectrum are films accorded the most ‘heavyweight’ status, offering the greatest challenges to viewers. Others mix aspects of art cinema with more accessible dimensions such as uses of popular genre frameworks and ‘exploitation’ elements involving explicit sex and violence. Including case studies of key figures such as Michael Haneke, Pedro Almodóvar and Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, this is a crucial contribution to understanding both art cinema itself and the discourses through which its value is established.

Film and Identity in Kazakhstan
Soviet and Post-Soviet Culture in Central Asia Rico Isaacs, University of Lincoln, UK Rico Isaacs uses cinema as an analytical lens to explore how the Kazakh national identity has been constructed and contested. Drawing on an analysis of Kazakh films from the last century, and featuring new interviews with directors and critics involved in the Central Asian film industry, his book traces the construction of nationalism within Kazakh cinema from the country's inception as a Soviet Republic to a modern independent nation.

The Prison of Time
Stanley Kubrick, Adrian Lyne, Michael Bay, and Quentin Tarantino Elisa Pezzotta, Bergamo University, Italy Through the close analysis of Stanley Kubrick, Adrian Lyne, Michael Bay, and Quentin Tarantino’s oeuvre, Elisa Pezzotta discusses time in the cinematic medium. Pezzotta deploys and unpacks an impressive array of scholarly methods to interrogate film time, many of which are emerging areas of analysis with the humanities, and especially screen studies. Offering an innovative synthesis of these several areas conventionally regarded as outliers to film and media, such as philosophy, cognitivism, and quantum mechanics, Pezzotta skillfully draws from extant scholarly literature to make evident the narratology of cinematic ellipses, lacunae and analepses across a range of films and genres.

Third Cinema, World Cinema and Marxism
Edited by Ewa Mazierska, University of Central Lancashire, UK & Lars Kristensen, University of Skövde, Sweden This book offers an analysis of Third Cinema and World Cinema from the perspective of Marxism. Its starting point is an observation that of all cinematic phenomena none is as intimately related to Marxism as Third Cinema, which decries neoliberalism, the capitalist system, and the Hollywood model of cinema as mere entertainment to make money. This is largely to do with the fact that both Marxism and Third Cinema are preoccupied with inequalities resulting from capital accumulation, of which colonialism is the most extreme manifestation.

To Boldly Go
Marketing the Myth of Star Trek Djoymi Baker, University of Melbourne, Australia This book argues that the tools of transmedia merchandising and promotional material shape viewers' experiences of the hit television series Star Trek, to reinforce the mythology of the gargantuan franchise. Media marketing utilises the show's method of recycling the narratives of classical heritage, yet it also looks forward to the future. In this way, it reminds consumers of the Star Trek story's ongoing centrality within popular culture, whether in the form of the original 1960s series, the later additions such as Voyager and Discovery or J. J. Abrams' `reboot' films. Fusing key theory from film, TV, media and folklore studies, as well as anthropology and other specialisms, To Boldly Go is an authoritative guide to the function of myth across the whole Star Trek enterprise.

The Myth of Harm
Hollywood Screwball Comedy 1934-1945
Horror, Censorship and the Child Sarah Cleary, Independent scholar, Ireland Fraught with accusations pertaining to its alleged ability to harm and corrupt society, the horror genre is constantly under pressure to suppress that which has made it so popular to begin with: its ability to frighten and generate discussion about society’s darker side. Recognising the circularity of patterns in each generational manifestation of horror censorship, The Myth of Harm draws upon cases such as the Slenderman stabbing and the James Bulger murder amongst many others in order to explore the manner in which horror has been repeatedly cast as a harmful influence upon children, at the expense of scrutinising other more complex social issues.

Sex, Love, and Democratic Ideals
Gregoire Halbout, University of Tours, France A broad overview of a film sub-genre that usually gets folded into other comedy genres, such as slapstick, situation comedy, or romantic comedy. Gregoire Halbout gives screwball comedy its rightful place among genres, eschewing the usual auteurist approach, and includes many minor works never before analyzed using the screwball genre lens. Divided into three sections, Halbout opens with the history and definition of Hollywood Screwball comedy with respect to other forms of classical Hollywood comedy. He then moves on to the impact of internal Hollywood censorship on the genre; and finally the relationships between politics, the screwball comedic couple, intimacy and the public sphere.

Shocking Cinema of the 70s
Edited by Julian Petley, Brunel University London, UK & Xavier Mendik, Birmingham City University, UK Shocking Cinema of the 70s casts a transnational net to focus on films from a variety of countries, and from the marginal to the mainstream, which, by tackling various ‘difficult’ subjects, have proved to be controversial in one way or another. Julian Petley and Xavier Mendik assess how the production values, narrative features and critical receptions of these 'controversial' films can be linked to the wider historical and social forces that were dominant during this decade and continue to resonate in our current historical moment.

The Artisan as Italian Horror Auteur Leon Hunt, Brunel University, UK This book is framed by the question of how to approach a controversial figure like the"Master of Italian Horror" Mario Bava, but also uses his films to broaden our understanding of key issues in film studies. What issues do his films raise for authorship? How might he be understood in relation to genre, one of which he is sometimes seen to have pioneered? This book seeks both to be a study of Bava’s films but also to use them to explore broader issues in film studies.

Let's Go Stag!
A History of Pornographic Film from the Invention of Cinema to 1970 Dan Erdman, Media Burn Archive, Chicago, USA Let's Go Stag! reveals the secrets of the underground world of hardcore pornographic "stag films". Using the archives of civic groups, law enforcement, bygone government studies and similarly neglected evidence, archivist Dan Erdman reconstructs the means by which stag films were produced, distributed and exhibited, and also demonstrates the way in which these practices changed with the times, eventually paving the way for the pornographic explosion of the 1970s and beyond.

Brazilian Cinema and the Aesthetics of Ruins
Pablo Trapero and the Politics of Violence
Guilherme Carréra, University of Westminster, London, UK This compelling study focuses on contemporary Brazilian documentary cinema and what Guilherme Carrera defines as its 'aesthetics of ruins'. Carréra considers imagery of ruins in documentaries focused on Brasília - The Age of Stone (2013) and White Out, Black In (2014); Rio de Janeiro - ExPerimetral (2016), The Harbour (2013), Tropical Curse (2016), and HU Enigma (2011); and indigenous territories - Corumbiara: They Shoot Indians, Don’t They? (2009), Tava, The House of Stone (2012), Two Villages, One Path (2008), and Guarani Exile (2011). Carréra argues that, in portraying ruinscapes in different ways, these unconventional films articulate critiques of the notions of progress and (under)development in the Brazilian nation.

Douglas Mulliken, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa
Pablo Trapero and the Politics of Violence is the first book to explore the function of violence within the films of the Argentinian screenwriter-director. Douglas Mulliken contends that, through his representation of objective violence, Pablo Trapero has emerged as a distinctly political filmmaker. By focusing on several previously understudied elements of Trapero’s films, Mulliken highlights the ways in which the director’s work represents present-day concerns about social inequalities and injustice in neoliberal Argentina on-screen.

The Film Archipelago
Islands in Latin American Cinema Edited by Antonio Gómez, Tulane University, USA & Francisco-J. Hernández Adrián, Durham University, UK The Film Archipelago argues that the islands and archipelagos of Latin American cinema constitute a critically interesting, analytically complex, and historically suggestive angle to explore issues of marginality and peripherality, remoteness and isolation, fragility and dependency. As a whole, the collection demonstrates through a series of rigorous and nuanced analyses to what extent the combined insular and archipelagic lens can re-frame and re-figure both longstanding and recent discussions on the spaces of Latin American cinema.

There's No Place Like Home The Migrant Child in World Cinema
Stephanie Hemelryk Donald, The University of Lincoln, UK Choice Outstanding Academic Title 2018 In There's No Place Like Home, distinguished film scholar Stephanie Hemelryk Donald offers a fresh interpretation of the migrant child as a recurring figure in world cinema. Displaced or placeless children, and the idea of childhood itself, are vehicles to examine migration and cosmopolitanism in films such as Le Ballon Rouge, Little Moth and Le Havre. Surveying fictional and documentary film from the post-war years until today, the author shows how the child is a guide to themes of place, self and being in world cinema.

Walled Life
Concrete, Cinema, Art Jenny Stuemer, University of Auckland, New Zealand Walled Life investigates the mediation of material and imagined border walls through cinema and art. Although political walls practically and symbolically obstruct meaningful exchanges between nations and people, they also provide involuntary articulations of the political contexts and psychological conditions that have come to create them. Such articulations are made visible through graffiti, murals and art installations. They are also negotiated in films, photography and paintings. Focusing on the Berlin Wall, the West Bank Separation barrier, and the U.S.-Mexico border, the book explores the artistic and cinematic mediation of political barriers in order to identify the recurrent and traumatic markers of ‘walled life’.

An American Abroad
World Cinema On Demand
Anna Cooper, University of Arizona, USA
Edited by Stefano Baschiera, Queen's University Belfast, UK & Alexander Fisher, Queen’s University Belfast, UK
The Imperialist Gaze in Postwar Hollywood Cinema An American Abroad reframes postcolonial film aesthetics through a close textual study of Hollywood films about European travel from the long 1950s. The heterogeneous cycle of films made from 1948 to 1964 that depict Americans traveling in contemporary Europe portray a complex and fraught cultural encounter between American hegemonic power and a Europe that is being economically, socially and culturally dominated from across the Atlantic. Dr. Anna Cooper explores how discourses of European travel – Parisian shopping trips, Roman holidays, Berlin political intrigues and so on – are harnessed in service of American domination at the level of the American cultural imaginary.
World Cinema on Demand brings together diverse contributions by leading film and media scholars to examine world cinema’s dialogue with the transformations that took place during 2010-2014, engaging directly with ongoing debates surrounding national cinema, transnational identity, and cultural globalization, as well as ideas about genre, fandom and cinephilia. The volume sheds light on geo-politically specific issues of film circulation, consumption and preservation within a range of culturally diverse filmmaking contexts, including case studies from India, Nigeria, Mexico and China.

Filming Belfast, Beirut and Berlin in Troubled Times
Belfast, Beirut and Berlin are notorious for their internal boundaries and borders. As symbols for political disunion, the three cities have inspired scriptwriters and directors from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Following a comparative approach, the book concentrates on the cinematographic representations of Belfast, Beirut and Berlin. Making use of a variety of genres reaching from thriller to comedy, Schweter explores the three cities’ internal and external borders, as well as the psychological boundaries existing between citizens belonging to different communities.

How the Mirisch Company Changed Cinema Paul Kerr, Middlesex University, UK Hollywood Independent dissects the Mirisch Company, one of the most effective employers of the package-unit system of film production, putting films like Some Like it Hot (1959), West Side Story (1961), and The Pink Panther (1963) together as talent packages. Whilst they helped make the names of a new generation of stars like Steve McQueen and Sidney Poitier, and banked on the reputations of established filmmakers like Billy Wilder, they were also pioneers in attracting new audiences to the cinema with films about race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality, and more. The Mirisch Company bridges the gap between the pre-1960 studio system and the new Hollywood which emerged in its wake in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

The Origins of the Film Star System
Persona, Publicity and Economics in Early Cinema Andrew Shail, Newcastle University, UK Addressing the reasons why and how film companies in North America and Europe created movie ‘stars,’ in the years 1909-1911, Andrew Shail responds to Richard deCordova’s comprehensive and landmark account, which argued that the development of the Hollywood star system was indebted to precise collaboration between the American press and the movie industry. Assembling evidence from a multitude of archival sources, Shail reveals how this key element of the movie industry actually originated in France.

Reimagining the Promised Land
Israel and America in Post-war Hollywood Cinema Rodney Wallis, University of New South Wales, Australia Reimagining the Promised Land argues that there is a long history of Hollywood deploying images of Israel as a means of articulating an idealized notion of American national identity. This argument is developed through readings of key films, ranging from The Ten Commandments (Cecil B. DeMille, 1956) to Munich (Steven Spielberg, 2005). In examining the most notable Hollywood representations of the Jewish state, the book offers an informed historical overview of the cultural forces that have contributed to popular understandings within the United States of the state of Israel, Israel’s Arab neighbours, and also the ArabIsraeli conflict.

Male and Female Violence in Popular Media
Elisa Giomi, Roma Tre University, Italy & Sveva Magaraggia, University of Milan-Bicocca, Italy Elisa Giomi and Sveva Magaraggia propose that men engage in violent conduct at a significantly higher rate than women because they are socially and culturally ‘programmed’ to do so. They argue that popular culture representations play a crucial role in this process: TV series, films, pop music and videos, advertising commercials and tabloids, all tend to normalise violence against women as an allegedly natural inclination of males. By examining popular culture’s depiction of men and women in their opposite, yet complementary, roles of perpetrators and victims, the authors show unexplored interconnections, namely that gender ‘does’ violence and violence ‘does’ gender.

Postfeminism and Contemporary Vampire Romance Representations of Gender and Sexuality in Film and Television Lea Gerhards, Leibniz Institute for Psychology Information, Germany Lea Gerhards traces the connections between three recent vampire romance series that have tremendous discursive and ideological power - the Twilight film series (2008-2012) and two TV series, The Vampire Diaries (2009-2017) and True Blood (2008-2014) - to explore the cultural politics of these extremely popular texts. She uses contemporary vampire romance to examine postfeminist ideologies and discuss gender, sexuality, subjectivity, agency and the body. Gerhards asks: Why are these genre texts so popular right now, what specific desires, issues and fears are addressed and negotiated by them, and what kinds of pleasures do they offer?

Edited by Toija Cinque, Deakin University, Australia & Jordan Beth Vincent, Deakin University, Australia
Nostalgia, Transmediality and the Power Rangers Franchise Examining Power Rangers, the long-running but frequently-maligned intellectual property, by treating it seriously and on its own terms, Ranger Reboot considers how forms of mediated nostalgia respond to, and are shaped by, such production-located issues as public service and/or commercial outlooks, scheduling decisions and target audience. The study argues in favor of rejecting a primarily sociological understanding of mediated forms of nostalgia, which would account for these by linking them to perceived periods of anxiety and crisis, by instead foregrounding how production-based concerns impact upon individual constructions of nostalgia.

The Body and Digital Technologies Melanie Chan, Leeds Beckett University, UK Drawing upon existing scholarship around mobile media and new media, Melanie Chan explores digital technologies as phenomena (observable items such as such as smart-phones, handsets, consoles, head-mounted displays and goggles) in the light of theories of reality and corporeality. In so doing, the book highlights the qualitative dimensions of our sense of aliveness, movement, and interaction within a range of environments (virtual, real, or hybrid). Ultimately, it illuminates how our sense of shared, objective reality changes due to hybrid forms of reality.

Edited by Sarah Maltby, Sussex University, UK, Ben O'Loughlin, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK, Katy Parry, University of Leeds, UK & Laura Roselle, Elon University, USA Spaces of War, War of Spaces provides a rich, international and multi-disciplinary engagement with the convergence of war and media through the conceptual lens of ‘space’. ‘Space’ offers a profound, challenging and original framework through which notions of communication, embodiment, enactment, memory and power are interrogated not only in terms of how media spaces (traditional, digital, cultural, aesthetic, embodied, mnemonic) transform the conduct, outcomes and consequences of war for all involved, but how ‘war’ actors (political, military, survivors, victims) recreate space in a manner that is transformative across political, social, cultural and personal spheres. Foregrounding the work of artists, activists and practitioners alongside more traditional scholarly approaches Spaces of War, War of Spaces engages with the ‘messiness’ of war and media through the convergence of practice and theory, where showing and embodying is made explicit.

Media Technologies and Posthuman Intimacy
Jan Stasienko, University of Lower Silesia, Poland Constructing a theory of intimacy describing processes occurring between a ‘human’ subject and information creations, Stasienko shows in what way and in what phases that relationship is built and what its nature is. He discusses technologies and genres related to the construction of a new television message, composition of the film image and specificity of cinematic technologies. This diversity is prompted by the desire to show that, on the one hand, the building of intimacy protocols is not the domain of the digital era, and on the other hand, that the posthumanism of media apparatus is a wideranging problem.
