Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a re-examination of the cinemas of a range of countries in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe in communist times. It argues that, since the end of communism in these countries, scholars of film are able to view the cinemas of those countries in communist times in a different way, no longer bound by a Cold War outlook, an outlook which tended to view such cinemas only in Cold War terms.

Rezensionen

"This incredibly wide-ranging collection is distinguished by the unusual topics chosen by its nine contributors. Such a broad scope all too often leads to a diffuseness of focus that makes acquiring the volumes a difficult decision. Here, however, the contributions break new and important ground and warrant the most serious consideration by students of film." --S. Liebman, CUNY Graduate Center

Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty - CHOICE
