註釋The new edition of Film in Canada offers a current and comprehensive look at Canadian cinema in its political and cultural contexts. In this thoroughly updated and revised edition, author Jim Leach discusses the most recent films from prominent Canadian filmmakers, including Arcand, Egoyan, Maddin, and Polley, alongside well-established Canadian works. Scores of new film commentaries and a present-day look at Canadian film--complicated by the impact of globalization and impacted by technological developments--affirm Film in Canada as the most up-to-date authority on Canadian film.

Highlighting films and filmmakers that have defined the national industry since the 1960s, this second edition continues to provide balanced and comprehensive treatment of new and well-established English- and French-language films. The book also looks at many of the factors that have influenced Canadian filmmaking to date: ethnic and linguistic diversity, national identity, Hollywood, and the global marketplace.

Each chapter explores both historical trends and current examples of topics and themes, allowing material to be used in sequence or independently. Full of brand-new teaching resources and fresh new film stills, the new edition of Film in Canada will interest students and enthusiasts of Canadian arts and culture alike.
