Rowman & Littlefield The Encyclopedia of Best Films: A Century of All
Book SynopsisThis all-inclusive A-Z encyclopedia by one of the world's foremost experts on cinema provides comprehensive annotations of the best films produced from 1914 on. The work offers more than 5,000 three- to five-star entries (three stars=good; four stars=excellent; five stars=masterpiece), and yes, author Jay Robert Nash has viewed every single one of them as well as many more that did not "make the cut." In addition to a precis, each film's entry also includes a listing of the cast as well as the key principles involved in production, from the director to the hair stylist. Especially unique to this book is a rating system that helps parents determine whether or not a film is appropriate for their children. Unlike the industry rating system which can be influenced by studio lobbying, Nash objectively evaluates each film and confers upon it one of four recommendations for viewing: recommended, acceptable, cautionary, and unacceptable. Backmatter includes a list of top films by genre (i.e. animated, drama, sports, mystery, adventure etc.) as well as an annotated name index listing all persons mentioned along with their dates of birth and death. Rounding out this essential volume for the film buff are over 500 still photos from the author's private collection.Trade ReviewPRAISE FOR AUTHOR'S PREVIOUS WORKS A film lover's treasure. . . .

Ivan R Dee, Inc Woody Allen: A Life in Film
Book SynopsisThis book reprints a four-hour conversation between Mr. Schickel and Mr. Allen and includes a long essay of introduction by Mr. Schickel, which places Woody Allen's entire career in critical perspective, as well as a complete filmography. Readers will find Mr. Allen's reflections on his major preoccupations—the battle of the sexes; the conflict between reality and fantasy in his major films; mortality, religion, and the role that chance plays in the unfolding of our lives. The book also offers insights into Mr. Allen's working methods as a writer and the growth of his skills as a director.Trade Review...This book also offers new, tasty, nutritious stuff for Woody loyalists to savor. -- Owen McNally * Hartford Courant *This is an urbane and readable work and will be of great interest to avid Allen fans... -- Andrea Slonosky * Library Journal *Even those who have lost who have lost patience with Allen's recent efforts will want to read what he has to say about his 1970s masterworks. -- Gordon Flagg * Booklist *As usual, Richard Schickel has nailed his subject, and this time his subject is a particularly hard one to nail. -- Jeanine BasingerWitty, surprising, important (but never self-important), and—best of all—moving...a compact but very real treasure...graceful and perceptive...wonderful. -- Steven BachClearly, Allen is comfortable talking to Schickel...a brisk read. * Chicago Tribune *The author pleads a strong case that as a gifted writer and actor of limited range, Woody Allen deserves a more prominent position in the motion picture arts. * Foreword Reviews *…Thoughtful, critical insights into Allen's screen works. * Newport News Press *…Fascinating biography of a giant in film… * Forecast *Schickel is a thoughtful observer and critic, a lively writer…. * Virginia Quarterly Review *Schickel may well be the smartest, most practiced and least axe-grinding interviewer Allen has ever had. * The Buffalo News *A breezy, readable entry to Allen's vast bibliography...with an excellent Introduction and Afterword. -- Richard A.

Ivan R Dee, Inc I'll Have What She's Having: Behind the Scenes of
Book SynopsisWhile film genres go in and out of style, the romantic comedy endures—from year to year and generation to generation. Endlessly adaptable, the romantic comedy form has thrived since the invention of film as a medium of entertainment, touching on universal predicaments: meeting for the first time, the battle of the sexes, and the bumpy course of true love. These films celebrate lovers who play and improvise together, no matter how nutty or at what great odds they may appear. As Eugene Pallette mutters in My Man Godfrey (1936), "All you need to start an asylum is an empty room and the right kind of people." Daniel Kimmel's book about romantic comedy is like watching a truly funny movie with a knowledgeable friend.Trade ReviewYou may think you know everything about the great romantic comedies of Hollywood, but unless you've read this book you're wrong. Dan Kimmel puts it all in one place with scholarly diligence, an ear for gossip and great dialogue, and a sheer love of the movies. A treat for neophytes and hardcore cineastes alike, not to mention a handy guide for in-home night viewing. -- Ty Burr, author of The Best Old Movies for Families * The Boston Globe *Tony Curtis said romantic moments with Marilyn Monroe in Some Like It Hot were like 'kissing Hitler' and Hector Elizondo was paid out of Garry Marshall's pocket for Pretty Woman because Disney balked at paying him top dollar for a small role. One of the surprises of this entertaining behind-the-scenes look at romantic comedies is how miserable everyone was. Comedy is hard, love is worse. * New York Post *This collection of self-contained essays about films, ranging from Adam's Rib to Annie Hall is full of behind-the-scenes details on the making of the movies. It's almost like being there. * Chicago Tribune *

Bloomsbury Publishing Plc Deconstructing Brad Pitt
Book SynopsisThe reactions evoked by images of and stories about Brad Pitt are many and wide-ranging: while one person might swoon or exclaim, another rolls his eyes or groans. How a single figure provokes such strong, often opposing emotions is a puzzle, one elegantly explored and perhaps even solved by Deconstructing Brad Pitt. Co-editors Christopher Schaberg and Robert Bennett have shaped a book that is not simply a multifaceted analysis of Brad Pitt as an actor and as a celebrity, but which is also a personal inquiry into how we are drawn to, turned on, or otherwise piqued by Pitt’s performances and personae. Written in accessible prose and culled from the expertise of scholars across different fields, Deconstructing Brad Pitt lingers on this iconic actor and elucidates his powerful influence on contemporary culture. The editors will be donating a portion of their royalties to Pitt's Make It Right foundation.Trade ReviewWith just the right mix of wit, self-awareness, and critical passion, the authors subject the curious case of brand Pitt--artist and star, boy toy and generational icon, Redford scion and Ninth Ward architect, Chanel shill and co-proprietor of the going concern known as Brangelina--to edifying and satisfying scrutiny. * Eric Lott, City University of New York, The Graduate Center, USA *Deconstructing Brad Pitt will shock you the moment you find out it exists. The instinctive reaction to such a work is that academic analysis and Hollywood stardom do not to make good bedfellows. This is exactly why you open the first page, and you find yourself hooked ... It is a highly readable book, full of personal insights, first-person narratives and analyses based on the cultural studies literature. -- Helena Vieira * LSE Review of Books *In this exciting anthology, Schaberg and Bennett continue the work of DeAngelis, Negra, and Pomerance, once again demonstrating that an intensive study of a popular Hollywood film star will reveal not the margins, but the center of how American culture functions. The path charted by Richard Dyer 35 years ago has led to a flourishing of analyses of stardom, wonderfully executed here by Schaberg, Bennett, and their collaborators, who skillfully interrogate Brad Pitt's cinematic, popular, and political image. The first rule of Brad Pitt Studies is you MUST read and talk about _Deconstructing Brad Pitt! * Walter Metz, Southern Illinois University, USA *_Deconstructing Brad Pitt, edited by Robert Bennett and Christopher Schaberg, is an anthology of multi-disciplinary, multi-perspectival engagements with the figure of Brad Pitt. The book is a strange and compelling meshwork of affect, memory and desire, as each author/artist follows a richly surprising line that leads readers to places they might never have found on their own. Some of these places are whimsical while others are more perilous and reverberate with disaster, crises, madness, and failure. It would quite miss the point to say that this collection is a celebrity study – it transverses multiple disciplines from cultural studies to psychoanalysis to new materialist feminism and queer theory. Yet, it is not bound by any of these approaches. Ranging from visual essays to personal accounts, the collection articulates “Brad Pitt” as an event that is proximate to place, industry, nature, ruin, representation, and resilience. Moving into and away from the performative features of Brad Pitt, as celebrity and as citizen who could be considered the unofficial mayor of New Orleans, _Deconstructing Brad Pitt invites us to imagine what it might be like to theorize engagement as entanglement, as a productive crash into the objects that surround us. It invites us to take seriously what others too quickly ignore or leave behind. * Joy V. Fuqua, Associate Professor of Media Studies, Queens College/CUNY, USA, and author of Prescription TV: Therapeutic Discourse in the Hospital and at Home (2012) *An in-depth look into the cultural phenomenon called Brad Pitt, this book is for both fans and detractors of the actor. If you are expecting tabloid fodder and TMZ-like stories, don’t pick up this book because Deconstructing Brad Pitt by Christopher Schaberg and Robert Bennett is a serious academic treatise which happens to be an easy and fun read. -- Mari Davis * Marienela.net *Deconstructing Brad Pitt is an ambitious exploration of Brad Pitt as a man, actor and celebrity. ...a fascinating exploration of Brad Pitt as an icon, the roles he has played and the impact of his celebrity status on contemporary life. * Celebrity Studies *Overall Deconstructing Brad Pitt is a compelling read, most suitable for a scholarly audience though accessible to well-read mass audience that seeks thoughtful commentary on American popular culture. Pitt as actor, celebrity, philanthropist, father, partner, environmentalist, liberal activist, man, tabloid fodder, artist sheds light on many aspects of American popular culture and society. * American Studies *Christopher Schaberg and Robert Bennett’s edited collection Deconstructing Brad Pitt is an extremely remarkable volume and honest to the core ... It is the first academic study focused on the superstar, and it helps introduce Brad in newer ways to his readers as well as his fans. * Journal of Film and Video *Table of ContentsACKNOWLEDGEMENTS FOREWORD Robert Bennett, Montana State University-Bozeman, USA PREFACE Christopher Schaberg, Loyola University New Orleans, USA INTRODUCTION 1.
