Produktbeschreibung
Examines Indian popular cinema as a transnational phenomenon that mediates experiences of globalization and the media technologies and practices that shape postcolonial subjectivity.
"Within a rapidly growing body of sophisticated work on Indian cinema, media, and popular culture, "Untimely Bollywood" stands out not only for its originality but also for its audacity. Its deft coordination of what at first would seem wildly heterogeneous topics is simply dazzling. There are wonderful discussions throughout that involve themselves in surprising but consistently illuminating topics, including art deco theatres, DJ culture, and Dolby sound in India. The movement through these topics is as often fun as it is enlightening."--Corey K. Creekmur, co-editor of "Cinema, Law, and the State in Asia"
