Ricardo Luiz de Souza: English cinema: 1970-2006, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

English cinema is experiencing a chronic quality problem. It's not about a lack of resources or an inability to make good films. It's about the production of prestigious films, endowed with qualities that qualify them for the Oscars, and English cinema has always been a darling of the Academy. This is the, shall we say, serious side of contemporary English cinema, and its irrelevant side. It will be left aside in the following pages, as it is not of interest to the movie lover. In English Cinema: 1970-2006, Ricardo Luiz de Souza analyzes films made between 1970 and 2006, looking for some less obvious aspects of English cinema, but which should be taken into consideration. These films are sometimes irregular, often transgressive, sometimes brilliant. After all, Her Majesty's subjects are not all about the Oscars.
