Paulo Emilio Salles Gomes : On Brazil and Global Cinema, Hardback Book

Paulo Emilio Salles Gomes : On Brazil and Global Cinema Hardback

Edited by Maite Conde, Stephanie Dennison

Part of the Tauris World Cinema Series series

Hardback

Description

Salles Gomes wrote an extensive number of articles and books throughout his lifetime and his love of cinema influenced a generation of leading film historians and critics in Brazil.

This anthology brings together for the first time in English a selection of Gomes' most influential writings including texts on Hollywood, European and Brazilian film, alongside topics such as art house movies, commercial cinema, pornography and the vicissitudes of developing a film culture faced with official government resistance.

By blending together ruminations on both global and national cinema, avant-garde film and popular movies, Maite Conde and Stephanie Dennison illustrate how this advocation of a national cinema was forged in dialogue with international trends and commercial influences.

In doing so they introduce English-speaking readers to the work of Brazil's foremost cinephile, placing Brazilian film and film criticism within a global framework.
