Great Movies on American Life ----- Great Crime Movies ----- Great Movies on Society's Outcasts ----- Movies that stand alone ----- Books and Plays into Film -- (u.a.) // Out of the thousands of movies produced by Hollywood from the silent era to the present, Ted Sennett has selected the very best: the stories that made us laugh, cry, and gasp with wonder and delight, the films that made us think and even affected our lives. Combining a lively, informative text with almost 400 extraordinary illustrations (100 in glorious color), Great Hollywood Movies pays tribute to these memorable achievements. Every genre of film is covered in these lavish pages, from comedies that gave us the gift of laughter (Charlie Chaplin to Woody Allen) to crime movies that took us to the violent worlds of Little Caesar and Bonnie and Clyde. Here are the musicals with the stars that sang and danced their way into legend; adventure movies from Errol Flynn swashbucklers to Raiders of the Lost Ark; mystery movies (including, of course, the peak of Hitchcock)-plus the landmark films that changed the face of motion pictures, including The Birth of a Nation and Citizen Kane. Movie buffs will find all their favorites, old-The Gold Rush, King Kong, Gone with the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, The Maltese Falcon, Singin in the Rain-and new-The Graduate. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Cabaret, Star Wars-as well as a number of surprising and controversial choices. (Verlagstext) ISBN 0810980754 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 2500. …

But the railroad commissioned painters and photographers to present this remote region in a picturesque fashion, capitalizing on the dramatic scenery and idealizing the Indian. To accommodate travelers, the railroad set up deluxe guided tours and went into business with the Fred Harvey Company. Soon hordes of pretty, crisply dressed "Harvey Girls" were serving thousands of new and enthusiastic tourists. Exploiting a romantic image of the Indian, the railroad's advertising used paintings and hand-colored lantern slides in calendars, brochures, magazines, posters, and lectures that summoned Americans to their rich heritage and the beautiful lands of the West. Now, some 75 years later, the visual record of those early sales promotions forms an extraordinary document of Indian life and the spectacular Arizona/New Mexico desert along with views of California. More than 110 hand-colored photographs are reproduced in this stunning book, along with a gallery of advertising art and original paintings in full color, two maps, and a selection of archival black-and-white photographs. T.C. McLuhan, author of the best-selling Touch the Earth, writes with insight on the railroad's strategy and adds informative captions to the amazing photographs, many of which show dances and rituals that have since been forbidden to outsiders. Hopi, Navajo, and Rio Grande pueblo life-crafts, costumes, and ceremonies of rare beauty-are explored in exquisite detail. Here also are the Painted Desert, the Petrified Forest, Taos Pueblo, and Canyon de Chelly. This is a fascinating story of corporate mythmaking and the American dream.

Zustand: Gut. 96 S.; zahlr. Illustr.; 23 cm; kart. Gutes Ex.; Einband etwas berieben. - Englisch. - 114 illustrations, including 65 plates in full color. // Since the lovely lady with the enigmatic smile first appeared in Leonardo da Vinci's most beautiful painting - a Renaissance masterpiece and one of the great artworks of all time - Mona Lisa has charmed and captivated everyone, inspiring sixteenth and seventeenth-century copies as well as thousands of reproductions. Her face and name have been commercially exploited in every part of the world, while in modern adaptations artists ranging from Marcel Duchamp to Salvador Dali, from Jasper Johns to Andy Warhol, have given us their versions of the Mona Lisa. She even peers out of a window behind a male nude posed as a cowboy version of Michelangelo's David, and her body has turned up in photographs where those famous features have been replaced by the faces of Stalin, Golda Meir, and Jackie Onassis. In MONA LISAS, you'll find a sampling of every kind of rendition, from the loveliest, to the crassest, to the most wildly hilarious. Hail, Mona Lisa!

Zustand: Gut. 288 S.; zahlr. Illustr. (auch farbig); 31 cm. Gutes Exemplar; Umschlag berieben. - Englisch. - 262 illustrations, including 50 plates in full color // What makes Barbara Stanwyck in Double Indemnity the toughest "dame" in Hollywood movies? Why are Jimmy Cagney, Carole Lombard, and James Dean "live wires," while Lana Turner, Groucho Marx, and Robert Redford are "mannequins"? Without Psycho's pounding musical score, just how scary would Tony Perkins be? Acting Hollywood Style answers these questions and many more in a lively, fresh examination of the art of screen acting as practiced in Hollywood for the past seven decades. In a text imbued with the love of films, author Foster Hirsch discusses actors-from Rudolph Valentino and Lillian Gish to Robert De Niro and Meryl Streep-who embody the Hollywood Style, a unique blend of acting talent, compatibility with the camera, and that mysterious "star" quality. Among Hirsch's themes are the special circumstances in which film actors perform, the significance of body language, the supremely important face and voice of the film actor, the relationship between an actor's screen persona and "real life." All are considered within the context of the Hollywood studio system, which made and maintained stars during the Golden Era. Much original photographic research, primarily in the archives of the famed Kobal Collection, has been done for the book. Stunning images capture memorable moments in film history: Garbo cradling a nosegay in Camille, Brando orating in Julius Caesar, Fred and Ginger dancing their love in The Gay Divorcee. Other pictures illuminate themes in the text: the cardboard West of The Petrified Forest, Katharine Hepburn's somewhat inauthentic Chinese peasant in Dragon Seed, and Cary Grant's amusing, balletic antics in Holiday. The 262 photographs, 50 in full color, appear highlighted on full pages or grouped in revealing juxtapositions. The brilliant, groundbreaking text and spectacular images lift Acting Hollywood Style into a rare class of film book. Anyone who has ever thrilled to a great Hollywood performance - or been exasperated by a bad one - will want to have this book to understand the reasons why, and to know what to look for the next time.
