The International Movie Industry Paperback / softback
by Gorham Kindem
Paperback / softback
Description
Movies are both art and commerce, creative expressions of national/cultural interests and preoccupations and part of a global entertainment market.
The 20th century witnessed a transformation of the movies from popular novelties to highly valued cultural icons and commodities that have promoted national identity and specific political agendas, while also affecting international trade.
This comprehensive history of the international movie industry from its inception in 1895 to the turn of the 21st century features 19 original essays by international scholars who examine the film industries of 19 countries and six continents.
Each chapter focuses on a specific national movie industry's economic and related social, aesthetic, technological and political/ideological development within an international context during the 20th century.
The result is a global history of the movie industry over 100 years.
