{"product_id":"contemporary-spanish-cinema-9780719044137","title":"Contemporary Spanish Cinema","description":"\"Contemporary Spanish Cinema\" offers an essential analysis of the main trends and issues in Spanish film since the death of Franco in 1975. While taking account of cinema during the Franco dictatorship, the book focuses principally on developments in the last two decades. Acknowledging the sheer breadth and diversity of Spanish film production since the ending of the regime and the transition to democracy, this study includes chapters on Spanish film's obsessive concern with the past on popular genre film (including the comedy and the thriller), on representations of gender and sexuality and the work of women film professionals, both behind and in front of the camera, as well as on film produced in Spain's autonomous communities, particularly in Catalonia and the Basque Country. This book offers a unique and up-to-date focus on a wide range of materials, including work on such established directors as Carlos Saura, Victor Erice, Pedro Almodovar, Pilar Miro, Bigas Lina and Josefina Molina as well as exciting new talents such as Julio Medem, Juanma Bajo Ulloa, Alex de la Iglesia, Iciar Bollan, Isabel Coixet and Marta Balletbo-Coll.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barry Jordan, Rikki Morgan-Tamosunas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/02\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 6.17w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719044137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBarry Jordan is Professor of Hispanic Studies at De Montfort University, Leicester \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRikki Morgan-Tamosunas is Principal Lecturer in Hispanic Studies at Thames Valley University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40104764080243,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_de7ee2ad-81f5-4e9c-8d0d-833e4b933279.jpg?v=1653229816","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/contemporary-spanish-cinema-9780719044137","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
