Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st. Cloth, 413 pages, [16] pages of plates, illustrations; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Stated First American Edition. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. A fine copy of the first printing. "From David Puttnam--producer of such modern film classics as Chariots of Fire, The Killing Fields, Midnight Express, and The Mission, and the only European to have run a major Hollywood studio--an insightful and provocative history that explains the personalities and events which shaped film's transformation from a technological curiosity into one of the world's most powerful cultural and economic forces. From the early rivalry between its inventors to the power-brokering and political influence of today's mega-stars; from Zukor and Laemmle to Ovitz and Eisner; from the serendipitous discovery of Los Angeles ('flagstaff no good,' wired Cecil B. De Mille. 'want authority to rent barn for $75 a month in place called hollywood') to the exploitation and depredation of Europe's film culture in the name of the marketplace, Puttnam captures the urgency and wonder that swept through a young industry and set it spinning on an axis of money and power. Movies and Money chronicles the unprecedented collision between art and commerce, and incisively analyzes its implications in today's global arena. Puttnam's engaging history is also an impassioned polemic: From the moment Thomas Edison stole the first crude attempt at a movie camera from the French scientist tienne Jules Marey, Hollywood and Europe have existed, the author claims, in a state of undeclared hostility--hostility that has occasionally erupted into open battle for control of the century's most powerful artistic medium. And this battle, he contends, will ultimately determine the nature of Europe's cultural identity. He also argues forcefully for the intelligent application of the language and techniques of cinema to education, urging filmmakers to make films that challenge and inspire as well as entertain. Ten years after his abrupt departure from Columbia, Puttnam re-enters the debate about cinema with characteristic audacity, with the irreverence of an iconoclast and the canniness of a seasoned player. Movies and Money is a book that will change our understanding of the history--and future--of film. / David Puttnam is the Oscar-winning producer of Chariots of Fire, The Killing Fields, Midnight Express, Local Hero, and The Mission. He was chairman of Columbia Pictures from 1986 to 1988 and now works principally in the field of education, serving as an adviser to a number of UK government departments; as chancellor of the University of Sunderland; and as a governor and lecturer at the London School of Economics. In 1995 he received a knighthood for his services to the British film industry, and in August 1997 he was appointed to the House of Lords. He divides his time between England and Ireland." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.

hardcover, 6½" x 9½", with dust jacket 414 pages British producer David Puttnam, the only Eurpoean to have run modern Hollywood studio, provides the first comprehensive account of the struggle for sovereignty over the twentieth century's most popular and influencial medium of mass culture. It is a conflict which has pitted Hollywood moguls like Louis B Mayer, Jack Warner, and Michael Eisner against politicians, tycoons and cultural elites all over the world. As a result, Hollywood's global dominance is the most visible symbol of the 'Americanization' of the world (Donald Duck as World Diplomat). Packed book weighs 1¼ kilos (expect slightly higher-than-usual shipping). Felt pen mark to bottom edges. VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket.
