內容簡介
Contemporary Hollywood Cinema provides a wide-ranging introduction to the film industry today. The contributors examine the idea of the 'new' Hollywood, and ask what links and differentiates contemporary cinema from its 'Classical' predecessor. They consider the economics and institutions, aesthetics and technology, and audiences and ideologies of contemporary cinema, and look at emerging trends and genres such as new Black cinema, female action heroines, the 'yuppie horror' film, and the family adventure movie. The authors discuss new and defining features of contemporary Hollywood: the growth of agressive business strategies such as the independent marketing of stars; made-for-tv movies and the saturation release of blockbusters; the globalisation of the market for Hollywood product; the rise of the "major independent" production/distribution companies, and the recent success of independent films such as Pulp Fiction and The Brothers McMullen.
