Paperback. Condition: New. Genre, Myth, and Convention in the French Cinema, 1929-1939 examines classic French film, exploring and analyzing the cinema as an institution, the textual system to which it gave rise, and the light that such an approach can shed on the process of production and reception of specific films. Colin Crisp identifies recurrent patterns in the fields of character, narrative, and setting in the French cinema of the early sound period and delineates the myths that these patterns embodied. In Part One he discusses the 1,300 films produced by the French cinema in the 1930s, treating them as a single global textual system that returns obsessively to certain types of story, character, and setting. Part Two deals with publications of the period that comment on those films. The extensive viewer's guide and filmography make this book an essential resource for students of the history of cinema.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Here, for the first time in English, is a comprehensive analysis of Eric Rohmer's work. Rohmer, an enormously influential figure in shaping postwar realist film theory, and later in the development of the French New Wave, has been largely ignored in film studies, while others of the New Wave movements such as Truffaut and Godard have received considerable attention. In Eric Rohmer: Realist and Moralist, Crisp thoroughly examines Rohmer's films, performing structuralist, psychoanalytical, and ideological analyses of each. He further evaluates the connections between these films and Rohmer's realist film theory. Finally, Crisp's impressive study situates Rohmer's work ideologically within the historical context of French cinema after World War II, and gives due recognition to the achievements of this director within the realms of film theory and filmmaking.…

Paperback: 8½" x 5¼". Condition: Very Good: Light signs of wear. 1st Edition. © 1990: 1st in the 'Tabitha Jute' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Tabitha Jute was in trouble on Mars. It was Carnival time and everyone was partying except her. Up against the law, penniless and about to lose her livelihood and best friend, the space barge Alice Liddell - Tabitha needed some luck fast. Then along came the intriguing gloveman Marco Metz. He needed a lift to Plenty to rejoin his bizarre cabaret troupe; and he would pay. Tabitha knew Plenty was a dodgy place since its creators had been exterminated by the Capellans, the serene masters of the Terran system. But she didn't have any choice. What should have been a simple five hour journey (subjective time) and some quick cash turns into a chaotic chase from the orbital Tangle into the depths of hyperspace, with the cops on her tail. And that is only the start of her problems:- Review(s): "Greenland proves himself the Verdi of space opera. Awesome orchestration, admirable arias! - Brian Aldiss / "A great, big, magnificent galaxy-shaking plot that will make you forget to eat and sleep!" - Michael Moorcock:- (original cost £6.99).
