Instead, the war in Vietnam and its troubled aftermath persisted, the Watergate scandal unfolded, and continuing social unrest at home and abroad provided the backdrop for the new decade. The scene was similar in Hollywood, as it experienced greater upheaval than at any point since the coming of sound. As the studio and star systems declined, actors had more power than ever, and because many had become fiercely politicized by the temper of the times, the movies they made were often more challenging than before. Thus, just when it might have faded out, Hollywood was reborn--but what was the nature of this rebirth?Hollywood Reborn examines this question, with contributors focusing on many of the era's key figures — noteworthy actors such as Jane Fonda, Al Pacino, Faye Dunaway, and Warren Beatty, and unexpected artists, among them Donald Sutherland, Shelley Winters, and Divine. Each essay offers new perspectives through the lens of an important star, illuminating in the process some of the most fascinating and provocative films of the decade.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 156mmItem Weight: 456gContributor: James Morrison (Introduction by), Jean Walton (Contributions by), Joe Wlodarz (Contributions by), Thomas Schur (Contributions by), Cynthia Erb (Contributions by), Jans Wager (Contributions by), Chris Cagle (Contributions by), Maria Pramaggiore (Contributions by), Nick Davis (Contributions by), Karl Schoonover (Contributions by), James Morrison (Edited by)Genre: Films & TVBook Series: Star Decades: American Culture/American CinemaISBN-10: 0813547490Item Width: 15mmAuthor: James MorrisonRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
