Book Description
Holocaust movies have become an important segment of world cinema and the de-facto Holocaust education for many. One quarter of all American-produced Holocaust-related feature films have won or been nominated for at least one Oscar. In fact, from 1945 through 1991, half of all American Holocaust features were nominated. Yet most Holocaust movies have fallen through the cracks and few have been commercially successful. This book explores these trends--and many others--with a comprehensive guide to hundreds of films and made-for-television movies. From Anne Frank to Schindler's List to Jojo Rabbit, more than 400 films are examined from a range of perspectives--historical, chronological, thematic, sociological, geographical and individual. The filmmakers are contextualized, including Charlie Chaplin, Sidney Lumet, Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino and Roman Polanski. Recommendations and reviews of the 50 best Holocaust films are included, along with an educational guide, a detailed listing of all films covered and a four-part index-glossary.

The Burning of the Piping Rock
Author: Joe Cutshall-King
Publisher: Shires Press
ISBN: 9781605710976
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
Over a series of weeks in July of 1987, a dying man sits alone in his apartment. Racing against his imminent death, he tape records a tale of blackmail, deception, and double cross involving the mob and New York's social elite. Twenty years later, the tapes are played for the first time and his son listens to his father's unexpected and increasingly horrifying confession of his unwilling ride taken on the night of August 16, 1954. His Father's companion was an arsonist and the two men's destination is the infamous Piping Rock Casino in Saratoga Springs, New York. The Burning of the Piping Rock is set against the backdrop of the US Senator Kefauver's efforts throughout 1949-1951 to destroy the hubs of organized crime in America. This included Saratoga Springs, where America's high society and the mob mingled amidst the glamour of the race track and illegal casinos, yielding a brew of illicit money and corruption. The book is based upon the actual, still-unresolved arson of the Piping Rock Casino. The ride of the two men exposes their very different backgrounds, shaped and misshaped by the Great Depression, the Second World War, and Saratoga Springs. The Burning of the Piping Rock brings them together in a way neither could have predicted . . . or wanted.
