"Buy land, 'cause God ain't making any more of it."When The Sopranos aired in 1999, it was at the forefront what is now known as the Golden Age of TV. Revolving around a suburban New Jersey gangster and his attempts to juggle work and home life, the show redefined the crime drama genre and, instead of stereotyped mobsters, gave us a sensitive portrayal of anti-heroes and deeply flawed characters we somehow find ourselves rooting for.Each episode looks like a movie, and the plots are dark and twisting, dealing with complex themes of depression, suicide, family strife and betrayal, and yet it never forgets to find the lighter moments in amongst it all, streaked through as it is with raucous humour and some truly unforgettable one-liners.This little book gives fans of the show a chance to relive the magic, to remember some of its most indelible moments and pithy exchanges, all while learning some lesser-known trivia along the way. If nothing else, it'll give them a break from wondering about what really happened at that diner in the final scene..."You don't shit where you eat. And you especially don't shit where I eat." Tony SopranoCreator David Chase only directed two episodes of the show: the first and the last.

Rick Winston's lifelong love of movies led to the creation of one of Vermont's leading cultural institutions, the Savoy Theater in Montpelier, Vermont. With humor and heart, he takes us behind the scenes of the hard and rewarding work of building a film venue over decades in a grateful community. Save Me a Seat! is the story of how a vibrant film culture took root in unlikely surroundings, and the story of how a boy from the New York City suburbs landed in Vermont and became a preeminent film programmer and historian in the Green Mountain State.

Farīd ad-Dīn-e ʿAṭṭār's Persian folk tale The Conference of the Birds relates the quest by thousands of pilgrim birds for an ideal king, the mythical bird called Sīmorgh. At the end of the quest, the surviving birds recognise that the longed-for king is nothing other than the reflection of their own existence. But what about those other birds that were not able to become part of the final representation? This groundbreaking book calls them 'counter-memories'; memories that are barred from hegemonic history, but are, nevertheless present in cinematic forms. Due to the strategic and artistic interventions of a range of Iranian filmmakers, such as Abbas Kiarostami and Shahram Mokri, Ali Hatami and Tahmineh Milani, Kianoush Ayari and Rakshan Banietemad, the history of post-revolutionary Iranian Cinema is also structured by counter-memories, with the potential to destabilise officially fabricated success stories of revolution, war and sacred defence. Counter-Memories in Iranian Cinema establishes a new framework for understanding the tensions between censorship and resistance, helping to carve out resistant points of remembering both within and outside state-controlled cinema.

1000 Vampires on Screen is a truly unique collection written by award-winning author and vampire-genre expert Simon Bacon that in two packed volumes covers the history of vampires on film and television. Looking at examples, from Nosferatu to Duckula, Blacula to Twilight, and Dark Shadows to True Blood the story of the screen vampire from its first appearance on film is told from the perspective of the vampire itself, charting its journey from a hideous, devilish monster through to romantic lead and even as aspirational role model. It is a trip that takes us around the globe, to countries in every continent, and even some places in outer space, encompassing bloodsuckers, energy-drinkers, soul-takers, life-absorbers, body-copiers, man-eating-plants, possessed objects, sexoholics, eternal lovers, and vegetarian vampires, to name but a few. Further to this, the two volumes of 1000 Vampires on Screen also features 30+ exclusive interviews with the writers, directors, and actors that have brought these undead creatures to life. Jim Wynorski, Henry Rollins, Robert Bierman, Debbie Rochon, Neil Jordan, Anna Silk, Doug Jones, Leonor Varella, Catherine Hardwicke, and James Woods amongst many others discuss what glamoured them about the vampire, how they became them on screen, and why, so many of them, returned to its embrace again and again. Many of them also share exclusive and personal onset photographs, design images, and publicity shots to give new perspectives on themselves and on the vampires they created. All of this is supported by cross-reference notes on all the entries and extensive Film, and Actor and Director Indexes making 1000 Vampires on Screen not only an indispensable reference tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike, but one of the most inventive and important books on the vampire genre of 2023.1000 Vampires offers a delectable buffet of screen vampires, full of prime cuts and rare meats. It ranges from Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein to Zoltan, Hound of Dracula, via vamps both famous and obscure and from the first flickers of celluloid to the latest undead streaming shows from around the world. Simon Bacon's compendious knowledge and enthusiasm leaps off every page. A bloody valuable resource for every budding vampirologist.-Professor Roger Luckhurst, editor of Oxford World's Classics edition of Dracula and the Cambridge Companion to Dracula

"It is seldom that we find scholarship that simultaneously informs and entertains, but Simon Bacon, a leading figure in the new generation of academic appraisal of the penetration of Dracula and vampire lore into the popular culture, does just that in his 1000 Vampires on the Screen. He immerses the reader into one of the major realms through which vampires in all their diversity take up residence in our mundane existence, enlarge our consciousness, and drive boredom from day-to-day routines. Then, by repeatedly assuming the vampire's POV, he forces us to consider our personal appropriation and integration of our favorite bloodsuckers as we suck the life out of the movies we love."J. Gordon Melton Author of The Vampire Almanac: The Compete History (2022) "A highly original approach to a vampire encyclopedia, which makes it all the more necessary for every bookshelf, even those storing garlic cookbooks."

Anthroposcreens frames the 'climate unconscious' as a reading strategy for film and television productions during the Anthropocene. Drawing attention to the affects of climate change and the broader environmental damage of the Anthropocene, this study mobilizes its frame in concert with other tools from cultural and film studies¿such as debates over Black representation¿to provide readings of the underlying environmental themes in Black American and Norwegian screen texts. These bodies of work provide a useful counterpoint to the dominance of white Anglo-American stories in cli-fi while also ranging beyond the boundaries of the cli-fi genre to show how the climate unconscious lens functions in a broader set of texts. Working across film studies, cultural studies, Black studies, and the environmental humanities, Anthroposcreens establishes a cross-disciplinary reading strategy of the 'climate unconscious' for contemporary film and television productions. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

THE ECSTATIC CINEMA OF TONY CHING SIU-TUNGBy Jeremy Mark RobinsonTony Ching Siu-tung (b. 1953) started out as an actor and stuntman, working in movies in the late 1960s and 1970s; he moved into television as martial arts co-ordinator, in the late 1970s and thru the 1980s (where on several historical TV series); he moved up to directing movies with 1983's Duel To the Death. This book is fully illustrated in colour. Tony Ching Siu-tung's two signature works are probably A Chinese Ghost Story and The Swordsman 2. Critically, those two films (and their movie series, the Chinese Ghost Story series and the Swordsman series) have garnered the highest criticial accolades (and they were big hits financially), and The Swordsman 2 has been the subject of numerous analyses of gender-bending issues in cinema. The sight of Brigitte Lin in drag and later fooling around with Jet Li as a 'woman' seems to drive film critics goo-goo. Tony Ching Siu-tung has won awards for the action choreography for The Witch From Nepal, Shaolin Soccer, New Dragon Gate Inn, Hero and The Swordsman. Like the other famous action directors in Hong Kong cinema (such as Yuen Woo-ping, Sammo Hung, Corey Yuen and Yuen Bun), Tony Ching Siu-tung has worked with every single star in Hong Kong, every producer, every cameraman, designer, stylist, costumier, etc, and probably every stuntman and stuntwoman. Ching Siu-tung had provided action direction for Tsui Hark, Johnnie To, John Woo, Wong Jing, Ringo Lam, Zhang Yimou, Peter Chan, Andy Lau, Kevin Chu, and Stephen Chow, among others. That is, practically all of the major filmmakers in China. Technically, the movies directed by Tony Ching Siu-tung are breathtaking - in every department of film production, Ching's movies excel. Costumes are lavish, the sets are super-detailed, and the cinematography is stellar. Sometimes you really are looking at something very close to a classical, Chinese painting, where the billowing robes that the actors wear fit in perfectly, and are spot-on equivalents for the spiritual mood of Chinese art. Fully illustrated in colour throughout (over 290 illustrations), with images from the films of Tony Ching and other Chinese/ Hong Kong productions. With filmography, bibliography and notes. 592 pages. Hardcover, with a full colour laminate cover. www.crmoon.com

Instant New York Times bestsellerThe long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino.In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans?and all movie lovers?could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Residence and First Women, the first ever authorized biography of the most famous movie star of the twentieth century, Elizabeth Taylor.No celebrity rivals Elizabeth Taylor's glamour and guts or her level of fame. She was the last major star to come out of the old Hollywood studio system and she is a legend known for her beauty and her magnetic screen presence in a career that spanned most of the twentieth century and nearly sixty films. But her private life was even more compelling than her Oscar-winning on-screen performances. During her seventy-nine years of rapid-fire love and loss she was married eight times to seven different men. Above all, she was a survivor?by the time she was twenty-six she was twice divorced and once widowed. Her life was a soap opera that ended in a deeply meaningful way when she became the first major celebrity activist to lead the fight against HIV/AIDS. A co-founder of amfAR, she raised more than $100 million for research and patient care. She was also a shrewd businesswoman who made a fortune as the first celebrity perfumer who always demanded to be paid what she was worth.In the first ever authorized biography of the Hollywood icon, Kate Andersen Brower reveals the world through Elizabeth's eyes. Brower uses Elizabeth's unpublished letters, diary entries, and off-the-record interview transcripts as well as interviews with 250 of her closest friends and family to tell the full, unvarnished story of her remarkable career and her explosive private life that made headlines worldwide. Elizabeth Taylor captures this intelligent, empathetic, tenacious, volatile, and complex woman as never before, from her rise to massive fame at age twelve in National Velvet to becoming the first to negotiate a million-dollar salary for a film, from her eight marriages and enduring love affair with Richard Burton to her lifelong battle with addiction and her courageous efforts as an AIDS activist. Here is a fascinating and complete portrait worthy of the legendary star and her legacy.Elizabeth Taylor features a photo insert.

The real story of Hollywood as told by such luminaries as Steven Spielberg, Frank Capra, Katharine Hepburn, Meryl Streep, Harold Lloyd, and nearly four hundred others, assembled from the American Film Institute's treasure trove of interviews, reveals a fresh history of the American movie industry from its beginnings to today. From the archives of the American Film Institute comes a unique picture of what it was like to work in Hollywood from its beginnings to its present day. Gleaned from nearly three thousand interviews, involving four hundred voices from the industry, Hollywood: The Oral History, lets a reader ?listen in? on candid remarks from the biggest names in front of the camera?Bette Davis, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Harold Lloyd?to the biggest behind it?Frank Capra, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, Jordan Peele, as well as the lesser known individuals that shaped what was heard and seen on screen: musicians, costumers, art directors, cinematographers, writers, sound men, editors, make-up artists, and even script timers, messengers, and publicists. The result is like a conversation among the gods and goddesses of film: lively, funny, insightful, historically accurate and, for the first time, authentically honest in its portrait of Hollywood. It's the insider's story. Legendary film scholar Jeanine Basinger and New York Times bestselling author Sam Wasson, both acclaimed storytellers in their own right, have undertaken the monumental task of digesting these tens of thousands of hours of talk and weaving it into a definitive portrait of workaday Hollywood.

A screen adaptation of Algernon Blackwood's classic chiller, The Willows (and, to a lesser extent, The Centaur and The Man Whom the Trees Loved), as well as ten additional stories.ABE: (looks around nervously) Swede...?He looks for SWEDEN again, and again sees only the tops of the bushes, roaring in the wind. A beat later there is another crack! Another splash! ABE whips around. He sees, a few feet out, what at first appears to be a human arm reaching up from a gurgling eddy-deaden spidery fingers groping. He focuses his eyes upon it: the pressure stops cold as we see it is merely a gnarled branch. ABE exhales. Then, as driftwood is proving scarce on the island, he breaks off some willow stems and tries to fish the branch closer. The current dislodges it as he looks on and it floats downstream, bobbing and turning on the waves. ABE watches it go; it looks rather like a hand again; gesturing to him, summoning. A real hand suddenly lands on his shoulder. He spins around. It is SWEDEN; he is shining a Coleman lantern directly into his eyes.SWEDEN: It's gone now. There was a sound. Like....ABE squints in the glare, which obscures SWEDEN'S face.ABE: (breathes hard, listens) It's this awful wind. It roars such that I didn't even hear you approach!SWEDEN hands ABE a flashlight.SWEDEN: Here.ABE: Where were they?SWEDEN: In the stern. Under the ballast.ABE: (exhales) I wish this wind would go down ...SWEDEN doesn't say anything. There's clearly something very wrong.ABE: What?SWEDEN: We're not alone here.ACT 2, SCENE 12 EXT. THE FAR BANK. TWILIGHT.SWEDEN is standing with his back to us, facing the river. ABE approaches-he has taken the long way around the willows. SWEDEN turns slowly; the men look at each other. It is nearly dark.ABE: Sweden ...?SWEDEN steps aside as the camera dollies past him and in on A CORPSE, a real one. It is caught up in the roots of the willows, several feet from the crumbling bank, chest-deep in the water, vertically positioned, bobbing up and down in a violent whirlpool. The corpse is wearing an Army-green or dark blue nylon parka, slick from the river, with a sopping fur-lined hood. The hood droops, obscuring the face from the top of the mouth up, the mouth which is stretched, contorted, whose chin is far too long. The whole body is stiff like a statue, its flesh an ashen gray-blue. Its hands are twisted and groping, like tree branches-willow branches. One is frozen with Rigor Mortis in such a way that it appears to be reaching out, its fingers gnarled, misshapen; they are too-long, really, to seem entirely human. The bony, branch-like index finger seems almost to be pointing, indicting the sky.ABE: My God, Sweden.... (turns to his friend) What happened here?

Dieses Buch thematisiert im Rahmen einer interdisziplinär ausgerichteten TV-Serienforschung Beiträge zum besonderen Format der Kriegsserie. Der Bogen der diskutierten Serien reicht von M*A*S*H aus der Zeit des ¿klassischen¿ Fernsehens bis zu neueren und neusten Produktionen, die über Streaming-Dienste angeboten werden wie zum Beispiel Das Boot oder die Bundeswehr-YouTube-Serien Die Rekruten und Mali. Diskutiert werden Kriegsserien in ihren Überschneidungen mit anderen Film- und TV-Genres (Krimiserie: Magnum, p.i., History-Serie: Vikings, Sciencefiction: Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek, auch Philip K. Dick¿s Electric Dreams). Im Focus steht überdies die steigende Bedeutung der Kriegsthematik in Serienproduktionen seit der Jahrtausendwende (im Zusammenhang mit den ¿neuen Kriegen¿) wie Band of Brothers, The Pacific oder Generation Kill. Neben den aktualisierenden Untersuchungen geht es schließlich auch um historische Rekonstruktion, wenn Serien wie Combat! bis Over There untersucht werden.

Welche Filmtheorie ist hilfreich, um eine Erkenntnisfrage zu klären? Wie wirkt sich die theoretische Perspektive auf die Filmanalyse aus? Diese Fragen bestimmen grundlegend jede Untersuchung. Um den besonderen Fokus einer Theorie offenzulegen, stellt dieses Lehrbuch einen Spielfilm ins Zentrum: Blow Up (GB, I, USA 1966) von Michelangelo Antonioni. Blow Up wird wechselweise beleuchtet aus dem Blickwinkel der Narratologie, Bildtheorie und Musiktheorie, der Stil- und Genretheorie, des Neoformalismus und der quantitativen Filmanalyse, der Psychoanalyse und Gender Studies, der Realismustheorie und des Poststrukturalismus, der Intermedialitätstheorie und der Medienkulturtheorie. Welche Konturen des Films treten im Schlaglicht einer Theorie hervor, welche werden durch sie verborgen? Wie können sich zwei Modelle ergänzen? Wo schließen sie einander aus? Die Beiträge führen in die zentralen Positionen und Kategorien jeder Theorie ein und wenden die Modelle unmittelbarauf den Film an. Um die Besonderheiten der Perspektiven herauszustellen, reflektieren die Autor*innen jeweils abschließend die Analogien, Differenzen und Synergien sowie die Vor- und Nachteile komplementärer Theorien.
