Produktinformationen zu „Australian Film (ePub)“
Australia has always been at the forefront of the film industry, giving birth to the world's very first fiction and documentary features, and a host of international stars, directors and first rate crews. Attempting to shed light on this often overlooked national cinema, this book analyses over 80 significant works from silent through to contemporary cinema, considering their technical innovation and recurring themes. The diverse range of films include The History of the Kelly Gang, Walkabout, Picnic at Hanging Rock, Mad Max, My Brilliant Career, The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith, Dead Calm, Shine, Rabbit-Proof Fence, Chopper, Moulin Rouge and the controversial horror, Wolf Creek.
The author examines how acclaimed directors such as Peter Weir, Gillian Armstrong and Philip Noyce have used the medium of film to explore and come to terms with their problematic past, in particular British colonialism and the treatment of indigenous Australians, and dramatize issues of landscape, masculinity, anti-authoritarianism and the pioneering spirit. She also traces the careers of homegrown talents Mel Gibson, Russell Crowe, Nicole Kidman, Guy Pearce, Cat Blanchett, Hugh Jackman, Eric Bana and Geoffrey Rush.
