Index.
"Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty." (Choice, 1 November 2011)
"Explorations in New Cinema History is one book well deserving of
it title. Richard Maltby and his colleagues and contributors
not only lay out what this new style of social cinema history
means, but add case studies from the Netherlands to Australia to
small town USA. A major must-read for all scholars of cinema
history."
Douglas Gomery, author of Shared Pleasures
"This exciting collection adds further dimensions to the study of
film circulation and consumption and of cinema as a site of social
and cultural exchange. In doing so it establishes the "new cinema
history" as a major new force in the field of Film Studies"
Stephen Neale, University of Exeter
"An indispensable compendium documenting the rich body of work
produced over the last decade on the social history of the
experience of moviegoing."
Frank Kessler, Universiteit Utrecht
