Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Hollywood Culture Has Been Dismissed As Insignificant For So Long That Film Buffs And Critics Might Be Forgiven For Forgetting That For Two Decades An Unprecedented Interaction Of Social And Cultural Forces Shaped American Film. In This Account Of How A Generation Of Industry Newcomers Attempted To Use The Modernist Art Of The Cinema To Educate The Public In Antifascist Ideals, Saverio Giovacchini Traces The Profound Transformation That Took Place In The Film Industry From The 1930S To The 1950S. Rejecting The Notion That European Emigres And New Yorkers Sought A Retreat From Politics Or Simply Gravitated Toward Easy Money, He Contends That Hollywood Became Their Mecca Precisely Because They Wanted A Deeper Engagement In The Project Of Democratic Modernism.
