Thomas Ott
Cinema Panopticum

2005 y.
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
Description: T. Ott plunges into the darkness with five new graphic horror novelettes: `The Prophet,` `The Wonder Pill,` `La Lucha,` `The Hotel,` and the title story, each executed in his hallucinatory and hyper-detailed scratchboard style and runningbetween 16 to 20 pages. The first story in the book introduces the other four: A little girl visits an amusement park. She looks fascinated, but finds everything too expensive. Finally, behind the rollercoaster she eyeballs a small booth with `CINEMAPANOPTICUM` written on it. Inside there are boxes with screens. Every box contains a movie, the title of each appears on each screen. Each costs only a dime, so the price is right for the little girl. She puts her money in the first box: `The Prophet` begins. In the film, a vagrant foresees the end of the world and tries to warn people, but nobody believes him. They will soon enough. In the second film, `The Wonderpill,` a short-sighted man initially goes blind from some pills his doctor gave him,… [detailed...]

Alexander Kluge
Cinema Stories

2007 y.
Publisher: New Directions
Description: Alexander Kluge turns 75 in autumn 2007, and to celebrate he will be the Special Guest of Honor at the 75th Venice Film Festival, showing his films in the Grand Salon, he will enjoy a MoMA retrospective, Facets Multimedia will launch DVDs of all his dozens of movies and all his TV work and New Directions is proud to present his new fiction collection, all about the cinema. The thirty-eight tales of Cinema Stories combine fact and fiction, and they all revolve around movie-making. The book compresses a lifetime of feeling, thought, and practice: Kluge—considered the father of New German Cinema—is an inventive wellspring of narrative notions. `The power of his prose,` as Small Press noted, `exudes the sort of pregnant richness one might find in the brief scenarios of unknown films.` Cinema Stories is a treasure box of cinematic lore and movie magic by `Alexander Kluge, that most enlightened of writers` (W. G. Sebald). [detailed...]

John Hill
Cinema and Northern Ireland: Film, Culture and Politics

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: John Hill`s groundbreaking study is the first book to focus solely on the cinema from and about Northern Ireland. Based on detailed archival research, Hill`s comprehensive account traces the history of film production in Northern Ireland from the beginnings of a local film industry in the 1920s and 1930s, when the first Northern Irish `quota quickies` were made, through the propaganda films of the 1940s and 1950s and on to the cinema of the Troubles. Hill carefully examines the relationship between films and the political tensions within Northern Ireland, identifying the ways in which films have both reinforced and challenged social divisions. He considers the moral and religious controversies that have surrounded cinema in the North and describes the political censorship of films held to be seditious such as Ourselves Alone and The Plough and the Stars . He assesses the role of filmmaking in Northern Ireland during and after the Second World War and considers how… [detailed...]

Professor Andre Loiselle
Cinema as History: Michele Brault and Modern Quebec

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: With a career spanning more than five decades, director and cinematographer Michel Brault is one of the most influential figures in Quebecois cinema. Brault`s early works, including Les Raquetteurs and Pour la Suite du Monde, reflected a hitherto unacknowledged and unfulfilled need on the part of Quebecois society to see their own culture reflected onscreen and helped spark a cultural renaissance in Quebec. His 1974 fiction feature Les Ordres, which deals with the Quebec Liberation Front crisis and the invocation of the War Measures Act, has consistently been listed as one of the best Quebecois and Canadian films to date. Brault`s work as cinematographer -- on groundbreaking films such as Claude Jutra`s Mon Oncle Antoine (1971) and Francis Mankiewicz`s Les Bons Debarras (1980) -- and his contributions to the development of the cinema-verite movement, have been equally significant.

Cinematherapy Goes to the Oscars

Now the authors are back with a Cinematherapy take on the Oscar canon and how these award-winning films serve not only as a celluloid pharmacy but also as a window into ourselves, our relationships, and our times. Starting with the present and working backward by decade, Cinematherapy Goes to the Oscars uncovers the grand themes of each decade`s award-winning films, from the Father Issue films of the seventies, with their ambiguous father figures (Patton, Kramer vs. Kramer) to bad girls acting out for disapproving fathers` love (Klute, Cabaret), to the Unsung Hero films of the fifties (On the Waterfront, The African Queen). Along the way there is great dish on who… [detailed...]

Cinematic Modernism : Modernist Poetry and Film

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionSusan McCabe juxtaposes the work of four American modernist poets with the techniques and themes of early twentieth-century European avant-garde films. The historical experience of World War One and its aftermath of broken and shocked bodies shaped a preoccupation with fragmentation in both film and literature. Film, montage and camera work provided poets with a vocabulary through which to explore and refashion modern physical and metaphoric categories of the body, including the hysteric,automaton, bisexual and femme fatale. This innovative study explores the impact of new cinematic modes of representation on the poetry of Gertrude Stein, William Carlos Williams, H. D., and Marianne Moore. Cinematic Modernism links the study of literary forms with film studies, visual culture, gender studies and psychoanalysis to expand the usual parameters of literary modernism. [detailed...]

Description: This is the first textbook for architectural drawing with the computer that is based on understanding how digital drawing fundamentally differs from drawing with lead pencils on drafting boards. `Cinemetrics: Architectural Drawing Today` demonstrates a cinematically-inspired, cybernetically imaged, architectural drawing system for thinking about architecture as embedded in relationships within the world at large. It opens up the possibility of inventing new ways of building as framing flowing matter in order to live a philosophy of newness. The authors, who have for fifteen years collaborated in teaching architectural students, link the architectural drawing text with research in the expanded field of architecture, which includes neurology, biology, ecology, physics, sustainability and philosophy. The book is written in an accessible and direct tone. Providing both an understanding of the visual perception behind drawing and practical exercises, it is set to become the key text book… [detailed...]
