| Summary | Annotation <em>Keyframes</em>introduces the study of popular cinema of Hollywood and beyond and responds to the transformative effect of cultural studies on film studies.<br>The contributors rethink contemporary film culture using ideas and concerns from feminism, queer theory, 'race' studies, critiques of nationalism, colonialism and post-colonialism, the cultural economies of fandom, spectator theory, and Marxism. Combining a film studies focus on the film industry, production and technology with a cultural studies analysis of consumption and audiences, <em>Keframes</em>demonstrates the breadth of approaches now available for understanding popular cinema. Subjects addressed include:<br>* Studying Ripley and the 'Alien' films<br>* Pedagogy and Political Correctness in Martial Arts cinema<br>* Judy Garland fandom on the net<br>* Stardom and serial fantasies: Thomas Harris's 'Hannibal'<br>* Tom Hanks and the globalization of stars<br>* Queer Bollywood<br>* Jackie Chan and the Black connection<br>* '12 Monkeys', postmodernism and urban space. |
