Rezension zu „Hollywood Cinema “
"Hollywood Cinema is an important book, one to be included in any consideration of American film and its influence in world cinema." Journal of Film and Video"This updated and enhanced edition of Richard Maltby's Hollywood Cinema is quite simply the best single textbook on the subject. In clear, user-friendly fashion, Maltby provides an astonishing amount of basic information about Hollywood while explaining how both the movies and the critical/theoretical discourse of film study have evolved over time. The book is not only an extremely useful overview but also an important intervention in current debates. An intelligent blending of formal and historical analysis, it should become essential reading for every serious student of film, whether beginner or advanced." James Naremore, Indiana University"In its first edition, Hollywood Cinema quickly became a 'must-have' volume for anyone interested in film. Beautifully reorganized, expanded, and updated with features that enhance its usefulness for research and teaching, this revised edition shows how truly indispensable Maltby's work on Hollywood is to media studies." Barbara Klinger, Indiana University
