Rumble and Crash
Author: Milo Sweedler
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 143847279X
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
Analyzes six films as allegories of capitalisms precarious state in the early twenty-first century. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, as the contradictions of capitalism became more apparent than at any other time since the 1920s, numerous films gave allegorical form to the crises of contemporary capitalism. Some films were overtly political in nature, while others refracted the vicissitudes of capital in stories that were not, on the surface, explicitly political. Rumble and Crash examines six particularly rich and thought-provoking films in this vein. These films, Milo Sweedler argues, give narrative and audiovisual form to the increasingly pervasive sense that the economic system we have known and accepted as inevitable and ubiquitous is in fact riddled with self-destructive flaws. Analyzing four movies from before the global financial crisis of 2008 and two that allegorize the financial meltdown itself, Sweedler explores how cinema responded to one of the defining crises of our time. Films examined include Alfonso Cuaróns Children of Men (2006), Stephen Gaghans Syriana(2005), Fernando Meirelless The Constant Gardener (2005), Spike Lees Inside Man (2006), Martin Scorseses The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), and Woody Allens Blue Jasmine (2013). Milo Sweedler has produced what are surely the most original, provocative, and downright dazzling readings of a handful of socially significant and potent films released during the tumultuous years from 2005 to 2013. This is a fine book. David Desser, former editor, Cinema Journal
