Download or read book Empire of the 'B's written by Dave Jay and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-16 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film producer Charles Robert Band is one of the last great B-movie survivors - a genuine pioneer who, over four decades, forged such a unique path through the no man's land of independent genre cinema that many thought him more than capable of seizing legendary indie producer Roger Corman's long-held crown as 'King of the B Movies.' The 1970s through to the late 1980s was the last great 'golden age' for the B-movie community, and with a non-stop series of grind house classics like 'Laserblast', 'Parasite', 'Re-Animator' and 'Dolls' for his company Empire Pictures, it was also the era that saw Charles Band take his rightful place in the indie hall of fame as the true Emperor of the 'B's. This is Band's officially-authorised helter-skelter story, and that of the mad company he kept

Download or read book #EMPiREFiLM written by Mark Leach and published by Mark Leach. This book was released on 2011-03-12 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #EMPIREFILM is a written record of the first live tweeting of Andy Warhol's "Empire" on Feb. 19, 2011, at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Nothing is left out: in #EMPIREFILM we read every tweet made during the screening of this notoriously long film. A typical movie is about two hours; "Empire" consists of eight hours and five minutes of continuous slow motion footage of the Empire State Building in New York City, leaving the moviegoers/tweeters an apparent infinity to fill with observations of the obvious, banal trivia and the frivolous chatter of Manhattan's fabulously bored (punctuated with random tweets by the author). As the story toils on and the hours go by, a sense of the absurd descends upon the crowd as they wait for the famed, fleeting reflection of Warhol in the window. Will the ghost of the Prince of Pop Art ever appear? #EMPIREFILM is the latest work of literary appropriation by Mark Leach, author of the 17-million-word "Marienbad My Love," the world's longest novel. "What he [Leach] does is the artistic equivalent of running newspaper ads, magazine articles, and tampon covers through a shredder, pouring glue on it, then taking a piss on it and calling that art." - name withheld at request of the commentator
Book Synopsis Flickering Empire by : Michael Glover Smith
Download or read book Flickering Empire written by Michael Glover Smith and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flickering Empire tells the fascinating yet little-known story of how Chicago served as the unlikely capital of American film production in the years before the rise of Hollywood (1907–1913). As entertaining as it is informative, Flickering Empire straddles the worlds of academic and popular nonfiction in its vivid illustration of the rise and fall of the major Chicago movie studios in the mid-silent era (principally Essanay and Selig Polyscope). Colorful, larger-than-life historical figures, including Thomas Edison, Charlie Chaplin, Oscar Micheaux, and Orson Welles, are major players in the narrative—in addition to important though forgotten industry titans, such as "Colonel" William Selig, George Spoor, and Gilbert "Broncho Billy" Anderson.
Download or read book Maureen O'Hara written by Aubrey Malone and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ang Lee (b. 1954) has emerged as one of cinema's most versatile, critically acclaimed, and popular directors. Known for his ability to transcend cultural and stylistic boundaries, Lee has built a diverse oeuvre that includes films about culture clashes and globalization (Eat Drink Man Woman, 1994, and The Wedding Banquet, 1993), a period drama (Sense and Sensibility, 1995), a martial arts epic (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, 2000), a comic book action movie (Hulk, 2003), and an American western (Brokeback Mountain, 2005). The Philosophy of Ang Lee draws from both Eastern and Western philosophical traditions to examine the director's works. The first section focuses on Taoist, Confucian, and Buddhist themes in his Chinese-language films, and the second examines Western philosophies in his English-language films; but the volume ultimately explores how Lee negotiates all of these traditions, strategically selecting from each in order to creatively address key issues. With interest in this filmmaker and his work increasing around the release of his 3-D magical adventure The Life of Pi (2012), The Philosophy of Ang Lee serves as a timely investigation of the groundbreaking auteur and the many complex philosophical themes that he explores through the medium of motion pictures.
