The Story of Film: An Odyssey
Mark Cousins
Mark Cousins, Jean-Michel Frodon
Эпическое путешествие по мировыми столицам от Болливуда до Голливуда, это «золотой век» 20-х годов и появление звука. Это истории секса и мелодрамы в 50-е и великие кинозвезды 50-х и 60-х, масштаба Федерико Феллини. Это американский кинематограф 60-х и 70-х, когда режиссеры пытались изменить мир, появление картин «Звездные войны», «Челюсти» и «Изгоняющий дьявола». Это 80-е, время протеста в кино, новый «золотой век» 90-х и появление новых звезд на небосклоне в наше время.
