Classical Hollywood Film Cycles
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-19953-1 (ISBN)
By foregrounding patterns of distribution, spaces of exhibition, and modes of consumption as key components of the form and mechanics of cycles, this book develops a methodology for defining cycles based on an analysis of the industry and trade discourse. Applying her unique framework to six case studies of different cycles, Zoe Wallin blends a wide range of historical sources to analyze the many cultural, social, political, aesthetic, and industrial contexts relevant to these films.
This book makes an important contribution to the literature in the area of film historiography, and will be of interest to any scholars of film studies, history and media studies.
Zoe Wallin is a Research Associate in the Department of Screen and Media at Flinders University, South Australia.
