From screen kisses to gender roles, this text explores the interaction between the movies and the society of which they are a part. It introduces the elements of the film, and encourages the reader to think about the means by which these elements shape an audience's understanding of the narrative.
From screen kisses to gender roles, this book explores the interaction between the movies and the society in which they are a part. Students are introduced to the elements of film - the shot, the cut, the soundtrack - and are encouraged to think seriously about the means by which these elements shape an audience's understanding of the narrative. On a larger scale, students are asked to consider how a film can influence its viewer even after the last reel has run out - and the way that societal changes radically alter the course of film history. New material addresses independent filmmaking, documentaries and women in film. Also, the book now has a larger section explaining theories of culture and the premise of cultural studies. A complete glossary of film terms has been added to the text and CD-ROM boxes end each chapter and suggest ways of using the CD to reinforce the reading. Also, a thorough index of the CD-ROM contents has been added to the book.
