When producer Ira Rosen walked into the 60 Minutes offices in June 1980, he knew he was about to enter television history. His career catapulted him to the heights of TV journalism, breaking some of the most important stories in TV news. But behind the scenes was a war room of clashing producers, anchors, and the most formidable 60 Minutes figure: legendary correspondent Mike Wallace.

Only one performance style has dominated the lexicon of the casual moviegoer: "Method acting." The first reception-based analysis of film acting, Imagining the Method investigates how popular understandings of the so-called Method—what its author Justin Rawlins calls "methodness"—created an exclusive brand for white, male actors while associating such actors with rebellion and marginalization. Drawing on extensive archival research, the book maps the forces giving shape to methodness and policing its boundaries.

According to Cox, the key to understanding The Prisoner is to view the series in the order in which the episodes were made - and not in the rearranged order of the UK or US television screenings. In this book he provides an innovative and controversial "explanation" for what is perhaps the best, the most original, and certainly the most perplexing TV series of all time.

Grand spécialiste de l'œuvre de J.R.R Tolkien, Ilan Ferry nous entraîne dans les entrailles de ce chef-d'œuvre pour révéler les références mythologiques qui abondent au fil des pages. Bien sûr, les liens entre les Elfes, les Orques, les Hobbits et toutes les autres créatures merveilleuses qui peuplent la Terre du Milieu avec les mythologies nordiques sont presque évidents. Mais à quoi font référence exactement les Mages Blancs et le terrible Sauron ? Pourquoi J.R.R Tolkien a-t-il imaginé son alphabet elfique et runique ?

Que serait un grand film sans son grand méchant ? Un mauvais film selon Jérémie Gallen, créateur de la chaîne YouTube Va te faire suivre. Si ces méchants nous fascinent autant, c'est peut-être parce qu'ils sont l'incarnation d'une partie de notre personnalité. La part la plus sombre et, par voie de conséquence, le symbole de notre humanité la plus imparfaite. Voldemort, Dark Vador, la Reine-sorcière… ne sont-ils pas les vraies stars de Harry Potter, Star Wars, ou Blanche-Neige et les Sept Nains ? Aussi effrayants soient-ils, ils suscitent notre empathie et font briller les héros de ces sagas !

Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life is one of the best-loved films of Classical Hollywood cinema, a story of despair and redemption in the aftermath of war that is one of the central movies of the 1940s, and a key text in America's understanding of itself. This is a film that remains relevant to our own anxieties and yearnings, to all the contradictions of ordinary life, while also enacting for us the quintessence of the classic Hollywood aesthetic.

In this compelling study, Joshua Clover undertakes the task of decoding the film. Examining The Matrix's digital effects and how they were achieved, he shows how the film represents a melding of cinema and video games (the greatest commercial threat to have faced Hollywood since the advent of television) and achieves a hybrid kind of immersive entertainment. He also unpacks the movie's references to philosophy, showing how The Matrix ultimately expresses the crisis American culture faced at the end of the 1990s.

Drawing on Daphne du Maurier's short story and contemporary newspaper reports of bird attacks in California, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds (1963) featured Tippi Hedren in her first starring role. Camille Paglia's compelling study considers the film's aesthetic, technical and mythical qualities, and analyses its depiction of gender and family relations. A film about anxiety, sexual power and the violence of nature, it is quintessential Hitchcock.

They are lost until they develop an intimate connection. In the film’s poignant, famously ambiguous closing scene, they find each other, only to separate. In this close look at the multi-award-winning film, Suzanne Ferriss mirrors Lost in Translation’s structuring device of travel: her analysis takes the form of a trip, from planning to departure...
