Download or read book Alain Resnais written by Emma Wilson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alain Resnais, director of 'Hiroshima mon amour' (1959) and 'L'Annee derniere a Marienbad' (1961), has transformed the representation of memory, fantasy and desire in modern cinema. This illuminating introduction to his work, extending from his earliest documentaries to the musical films of the last decade, traces the evolving patterns of his filmmaking, its changing reflections on mortality, guilt, chance and human doubt. Exploring questions of the time-image, of trauma, of the senses, this volume sets Resnais' films in the context of important current debates in film theory, and provides a concise account of critical discussions of his work in France and beyond. Yet it also offers a highly personal and detailed engagement with individual images and scenes in Resnais' films. A passionate and partial defence of Resnais' work, old and new, this volume stands apart in its attention to the more tangible and moving pleasures of his films, their pathos, rigour and visual beauty.

Book Synopsis Exile, Writer, Soldier, Spy by : Soledad Fox Maura
Download or read book Exile, Writer, Soldier, Spy written by Soledad Fox Maura and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-07-10 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this gripping, authoritative biography, Soledad Fox Maura reveals the tumultuous true-life story of the Oscar-nominated screenwriter responsible for Z and The War Is Over. A man of many faces, Jorge Semprún perfectly personified the struggles and successes of twentieth-century Europe. Semprún enjoyed a privileged childhood as the grandson of Spanish prime minister, Antonio Maura, until his world was shattered by the political strife of the Spanish Civil War and he went into exile. Facing dangers rarely seen outside the action movies of Hollywood, Semprún adopted a resilient spirit and rebel’s stance. He fought with the French Resistance in World War II and survived imprisonment at Buchenwald. After the war, he became an organizing member of the exiled Spanish communist party, maintaining the appearance of a normal civilian life while keeping one step ahead of Francisco Franco's secret police for years. Semprún later put his experiences on paper, becoming an internationally acclaimed author and screenwriter. In this skillfully crafted biography, Semprún's life reads as easily as the best thriller, and has the same addictive rush as watching an edge-of-your-seat mini-series.

Download or read book Montage written by Sam Rohdie and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montage enters into a dialogue with the cinema, probing and playing with its language of motion and stillness, continuity and discontinuity, constraint and openness, time and duration. Comprised of a series of elegantly-written and intellectually vibrant essays, Sam Rohdie’s book carefully expresses his ideas and arguments in a manner free from the complexities of contemporary theory and cultural criticism. As much a book written with the cinema as about it, Montage explores associative and comparative possibilities in the films of directors such as Takeshi Kitano, Jean Renoir, D.W. Griffith, Howard Hawks, Lev Kulsehov, Sergei Eisenstein and Alfred Hitchcock. It offers new and fascinating perspectives on mise en scène, framing, shots, and narrative variation. In combining the sensitive analysis of film forms and structures with an awareness of their historical and artistic relation to other art forms, it also elucidates an appreciation of montage aesthetics that is attentive to the influences of photography, painting and other arts. Montage is a book that will enrich our ways of seeing, understanding, and enjoying the cinema.
Download or read book Queen Kelly written by Erich Von Stroheim and published by Rlpg/Galleys. This book was released on 2002 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critics often consider the silent movie Queen Kelly to be the downfall of director von Stroheim, but he was unable to complete the movie to match the original screenplay or even a revised version, leaving the film's star Gloria Swanson to tack on a short ending that she devised in order to try to make some money out of the film. This volume presents the screenplay of the film and includes all three endings, which perhaps will lead critics to reevaluate von Stroheim's work on Queen Kelly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the power of wholes be resisted without essentializing their parts? Drawing on different archives and methodologies, including aesthetics, history, biology, affect, race, and queer, the interventions in this volume explore different ways of troubling the consistency and stability of wholes, breaking up their closure and making them more dynamic. Doing so without necessarily presupposing or producing parts, an outside, or a teleological development, they indicate the critical potential of partiality without parts.
