Produktbeschreibung
Post-Soul Black Cinema traces the movement of African American filmmakers and images, as they move from the margins to the mainstream of American cinema. The author writes a cogent history of African American participation in the American film industry. The ability of the book to break down the myths and highlight the important transformational moments that saw African Americans move from the margins to the mainstream to positions of power cannot be ignored. This book looks at contemporary Black cinema and the current trials and tribulations in the movie business. An important addition to the existing body of work that explores Black film as a genre.
This work examines and analyzes how the cinematic image of African Americans became a fixed image with strict rules of depiction both written and unwritten. And, how those very limited and under-informed images would not and could not be challenged or transformed until the power relations in the American film industry began to change and afforded blacks the opportunity at the very least to tell stories from an informed position.
