註釋
This book provides a detailed and engaging account of how Hollywood cinema has represented and ‘remembered’ the Sixties. From late 1970s hippie musicals such as
Hair and The Rose
through to recent civil rights portrayals
The Help and Lee Daniels’ The Butler
, Oliver Gruner explores the ways in which films have engaged with broad debates on America’s recent past. Drawing on extensive archival research, he traces production history and script development, showing how a group of politically engaged filmmakers sought to offer resonant contributions to public memory. Situating Hollywood within a wider series of debates taking place in the US public sphere,
Screening the Sixties
offers a rigorous and innovative study of cinema’s engagement with this most contested of epochs.
