Cinema Before Cinema
Author: Virgilio Tosi
Publisher: British Universities Film & Video
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Argues for another history of cinema, one which had its origins in the research needs of nineteenth-century scientists. Investigators such as Étienne-Jules Marey, Georges Demeney, Jules Janssen, Albert Londe, Ottomar Anschütz, and the maverick Eadweard Muybridge were keenly interested in the analysis of motion through photography. Their technological breakthroughs led to the cinema we know today, but their true inheritors were not the producers of cinema as spectacle, but a dedicated band of scientists, doctors, anthropologists and naturalists inspired by their work who established the art of scientific cinematography.--From publisher description.

A History of the French New Wave Cinema
Author: Richard Neupert
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 0299217035
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
The French New Wave cinema is arguably the most fascinating of all film movements, famous for its exuberance, daring, and avant-garde techniques. A History of the French New Wave Cinema offers a fresh look at the social, economic, and aesthetic mechanisms that shaped French film in the 1950s, as well as detailed studies of the most important New Wave movies of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Richard Neupert first tracks the precursors to New Wave cinema, showing how they provided blueprints for those who would follow. He then demonstrates that it was a core group of critics-turned-directors from the magazine Cahiers du Cinéma—especially François Truffaut, Claude Chabrol, and Jean-Luc Godard—who really revealed that filmmaking was changing forever. Later, their cohorts Eric Rohmer, Jacques Rivette, Jacques Doniol-Valcroze, and Pierre Kast continued in their own unique ways to expand the range and depth of the New Wave. In an exciting new chapter, Neupert explores the subgroup of French film practice known as the Left Bank Group, which included directors such as Alain Resnais and Agnès Varda. With the addition of this new material and an updated conclusion, Neupert presents a comprehensive review of the stunning variety of movies to come out of this important era in filmmaking.
