Hollywood in Cannes
Conjuring up all the glamour of the event, Jungen recounts the history of the Cannes Film Festival from an American perspective surveying the complex interplay of talent, money and corporate clout. He traces the growing influence of the Hollywood studios on the festival's rise to the key film event. Case studies of film (including The Birds, Easy Rider, and The Da Vinci Code) and of the creation of stars such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sharon Stone, profit from the author's experience of visiting the Cannes Film Festival over more than twelve years. The translation of this work was funded by Geisteswissenschaften International Translation Funding for Work in the Humanities and Social Sciences for Germany, a joint initiative of the Fritz Thyssen Foundation, the German Federal Foreign Office, the collection society VG Wort and the Boersenverein des Deutschen Buchhandels (German Publishers & Booksellers Association.
Health Education Films in the Twentieth Century
In 1949 the U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the Canadian Department of National Health and Welfare (DNHW) commissioned a film, eventually called Challenge. Science Against Cancer, as part of a major effort to recruit young scientists into cancer research. Both organizations feared that poor recruitment would stifle the development of the field at a time when funding for research was growing dramatically. The fear was that there would not be enough new young scientists to meet the demand, and that the shortfall would undermine cancer research and the hopes invested in it. Challenge aimed to persuade young scientists to think of cancer research as a career. This book is the story of t...

Zur Ästhetik von Kinotrailern
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Medien / Kommunikation - Film und Fernsehen, Note: 2,0, Universität Hildesheim (Stiftung) (Institut für Medien und Theater Abt. Medien), Veranstaltung: Meister des filmischen Erzählens: Clint Eastwood, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der Ästhetik der Trailer von Raging Bull und Million Dollar Baby auseinander. Obwohl beide sicherlich keine reinen Boxfilme sind, besteht doch eine Schwierigkeit darin, dies auch über die Trailer zu vermitteln. Wie die Trailer diesen Eindruck zu vermitteln versuchen, wird einer der Fragen dieser Arbeit sein. Dabei ist interessant, wie unterschiedlich die beiden Trailer auf dieses Problem reagieren und wie letztlich Beide doch ein ähnliches Ziel verfolgen. Das würde dazu führen, dass beide Regisseure einen ähnlichen Stil verfolgen, wie sie in ihren Trailer wahrgenommen werden wollen. Die zentrale Frage wird dabei sein: Kann ein Trailer durch seine Erzähl- und Bedeutungsebenen die Werbefunktion so sehr in den Hintergrund drängen, dass er vorwiegend zu einem Kunstobjekt wird?

Night and Fog
Fran ois Truffaut called Night and Fog "the greatest film ever made." But when Alain Resnais finished his documentary, with its depiction of Nazi atrocities, the resistance of the French censors was fierce. A mere decade had passed since the end of the war, and the French public was unprepared to confront the horrors shown in the film--let alone the possibility of French complicity. In fact it would be through Night and Fog that many viewers first learned, as film critic Serge Daney put it, "that the worst had only just taken place." An engrossing account of the genesis, production, and legacy of Resnais's incomparable film, this book documents in extraordinary detail how a film that began a...
