Movies of the 30s

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The stock market crash of 1929 had left the America-and the globe-in a devastating depression that would not begin to lift until World War II. With so many jobless, penniless, broken people singing the blues, is it any wonder that Hollywood strove to distract viewers from their misery with comedies like Chaplin`s Modern Times (1936), Capra`s feel-good Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936), and the Marx Brothers` hilarious Duck Soup (1933), thrillers such as Hitchcock`s seminal The 39 Steps (1935) or Hawks`s Scarface (1932), or the epic romantic classic Gone with the Wind (1939). While American moviegoers flocked to the theaters to escape their troubles and find solace in the magical world of Hollywood movies, filmmakers in Europe were experimenting with new techniques in a medium that had only recently gained sound, Fritz Lang`s German Expressionist M (1931) and Jean Renoir`s anti-war masterpiece La Grande Illusion (1937) greatly enhanced cinema as an art form, while Leni… [detailed...]

Movies of the 40s (Midi S.)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionA trendsetting decade in world cinema The 40s were the decade of the movies. With the world at war, directors served up propaganda and escapist entertainment to the massed moviegoers of the pre-television age. Yet in many countries, therewas also a parallel tendency towards greater realism. In Italy, for example, the spirit of the resistance culminated in the neorealist movement, which inspired the world?s moviemakers with masterpieces such as De Sica?s Bicycle Thieves (1948). In Hollywood, the 40s were probably the most creative phase in the studios? history. Never before had the Dream Factory brought such compellingly edgy and experimental films to the silver screen. The most seminal work of the decade was Citizen Kane (1941), Orson Welles?s extravagantly original debut anticipated the expressive visual style that would come to typify film noir?the genre of `dark movies,` populated by romantic antiheroes and femmes fatales, that still… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: `A tasty confection that is both fun to read and though-provoking. Clemens and Wolff have crafted and engaging book that illustrates the entire gamut of good and bad leadership behavior. I recommend it especially to young managers who are growing into oraspiring to leadership roles.` -- George R. Stephan, Former Chairman Kollmorger Corporation `Readers of this book should be allowed to go to the movies on company time. The flicks take on a whole new meaning.` -- Roy Rowan, Author of The Intuitive Manager Movies do more than just entertain. A good film can also teach. Charles Foster Kane, the tragic protagonist of Citizen Kane , is the perfect example of how hoarding power can lead to chaos in business and personal matters. Dead Poet Society`s John Keating is the archetype of the employee who has affected change downward but has not solicited the support of superiors who may later stonewall other projects. And Norma Rae (in the movie of the same name), a… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Since the U.S. Department of Energy (as well as other Federal and International agencies) will stop granting contracts to companies that fail to comply with 14000 standards, the search is on for any book that will make 14000 compliance easier. Tom Welch, with more than 20 years experience in environmental engineering and project management, provides such a book! Moving Beyond Environmental Compliance: A Handbook for Integrating Pollution Prevention with ISO 14000 is the first text to combine the best aspects of Pollution Prevention (P2), Total Quality Management (TQM), and ISO 14000, into a comprehensive `how-to` guidebook for achieving environmental compliance.The ever-increasing cost of environmental compliance as it is passed onto consumers, cuts into the profit margin and reduces an organization`s competitive edge. At the very least, compliance cuts into operating budgets, and directs attention away from the primary business of an organization. This handbook demystifies the… [detailed...]

Moving Image Theory: Ecological Considerations

2007 y.
Publisher: Southern Illinois University Press
Description: Blending unconventional film theory with nontraditional psychology to provide a radically different set of critical methods and propositions about cinema, `Moving Image Theory: Ecological Considerations` looks at film through its communication properties rather than its social or political implications. Drawing on the tenets of James J.Gibson`s ecological theory of visual perception, the fifteen essays and forty-one illustrations gathered here by editors Joseph D.Anderson and Barbara Fisher Anderson offer a new understanding of how moving images are seen and understood. Focusing on a more straightforward perception of the world and cinema in an attempt to move film theory closer to reality, Moving Image Theory proposes that we should first understand how cinema communicates information about the representation of the three-dimensional world through properties of image and sound.

Jasmine Alinder
Moving Images: Photography and the Japanese American Incarceration (Asian American Experience)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: When the American government began impounding Japanese American citizens after Pearl Harbor, photography became a battleground. The control of the means of representation affected nearly every aspect of the incarceration, from the mug shots criminalizing Japanese Americans to the prohibition of cameras in the hands of inmates. The government also hired photographers to make an extensive record of the forced removal and incarceration. In this insightful study, Jasmine Alinder explores the photographic record of the imprisonment in war relocation centers such as Manzanar, Tule Lake, Jerome, and others. She investigates why photographs were made, how they were meant to function, and how they have been reproduced and interpreted subsequently by the popular press and museums in constructing versions of public history. Alinder provides calibrated readings of the photographs from this period, including works by Dorothea Lange, Ansel Adams, Manzanar camp inmate Toyo Miyatake (who constructed… [detailed...]

Verdier shows that contrasting national political institutions have led to discrete regulatory policies, and thus,different financial structures.

Moving People to Deliver Services: Labor Mobility and the Wto (World Bank Publication)

Publisher: —
Description: The World Trade Organization now confronts an issue that lies at the interface of two major world challenges: trade liberalization and international migration. This book breaks new ground by examining the economic, legal, and political implications of the `temporary movement of individual service suppliers` currently being negotiated under the WTO`s General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). Conditions in many developed economies--ranging from aging populations to shortages of skilled labor--suggest that this may be a propitious time to put labor mobility squarely on the negotiating agenda. Yet a limited awareness of how GATS can be used to foster services trade liberalization combined with concerns about the potential for social disruption in host countries and the risk of `brain drain` in poor countries have frustrated efforts to reach a consensus. Moving People to Deliver Services brings together contributions from service providers, regulators (including ministries of… [detailed...]

Moving Pictures: Contemporary Photography and Video from the Guggenheim Collection

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionDuring the late 1960s and 70s, a paradigm shift occurred within visual culture: photography and the moving image were absorbed into critical art practices. In particular, these mediums were used to record ephemeral or performative events and to render visible conceptual systems or to question the supposed objectivity of representation itself. This volume focuses primarily on artworks from the last decade and proposes that the extensive use of reproducible mediums in today`s art has its roots in an earlier formative period. ~By the end of the 70s, many artists turned to photography as a vehicle through which to critique photographic representation and to subvert an art system premised on the notion of the original. While this practice cameto define much of the 80s postmodern art, its legacy for the 90s was essentially the license to indulge in photographic fantasy, image construction, and cinematic narrative. Artists working today freely manipulate their representations… [detailed...]
