It challenges accounts that see the film's young people as juvenile delinquents, using instead the label 'cultural rebels' as a signifier of youth's ability to resurrect a moribund music industry and rejuvenate a stale youth culture. This book also questions the nature of the label 'exploitation' as applied to the film by examining Columbia Pictures' role as a resource provider for Katzman's film, comparing \u003ci\u003eRock around the Clock\u003c\/i\u003e to contemporaneous films with a youth focus that were produced in different industrial contexts and investigating its relationship to adaptation by asking whether the film is an example of a 'postliterary' adaptation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRich on archival research and industrial and textual analysis, \u003ci\u003eRock around the Clock\u003c\/i\u003e will interest both film studies and youth cultures scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yannis Tzioumakis,Siân Lincoln\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138682771\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eYannis Tzioumakis\u003c\/b\u003e is Reader in Film and Media Industries at the University of Liverpool.
