Maggiori informazioni sul libro

From its beginnings in the documentary movement of the thirties, to its more stylistically eclectic and generically hybrid contemporary forms, socialrealism in British cinema remains a rich and diverse tradition. Samantha Lay examines the movements, moments, and cycles of British social realist texts through a detailed consideration of practice, politics, form, style, and content. It also includes case studies of key texts including Listen To Britain , Saturday Night and Sunday Morning , Letter To Brezhnev , and Nil By Mouth . The book considers the challenges for social realist film practice and production in Britain, now and in the future.
