FARADAY, George

Revolt of the Filmmakers the Struggle for Artistic Autonomy and the Fall of the Russian Film Industry. Post-Communist Cultural Studies.

Pennsylvania State University Press, 2000. P/b. 252pp. As new. A very nice bright copy. Clean and tight. Used; Like New One of the many unforeseen consequences of the fall of the Soviet Union has been the sudden collapse of the domestic film industry, probably the most privileged mass cultural medium of the Soviet Union. By the mid-1980s, some 150 feature films were produced annually for audiences numbering nearly four billion per year. Since 1991, however, cinema attendance has plummeted by a factor of at least one hundred, and the remnants of the once huge audiences now watch an overwhelming number of imported, mostly American, films. Revolt of the Filmmakers is the first account of Russia's film industry since this disastrous decline. Paperback.

LAVALLEY, Al and SCHERR, Barry P.

Eisenstein at 100 a Reconsideration

Rutgers University Press, 2001. P/b. xii+318pp. Used; Like New This collection, featuring the work of major film theorists and Russian scholars, offers a post-Soviet reconsideration of Sergei Eisenstein's contribution to world cinema. The book addresses such themes as sexuality, religion, gender and politics, and considers the films "Potemkin", "October", "Alexander Nevsky" and "Ivan the Terrible". Of particular concern in this text is Eisenstein's struggle with Soviet censorship, which resulted in a tenuous balance between the pressures of the state and his goals as an artist. Paperback.
