Description
The Australian Film Revival: 70s, 80s, and Beyond explores the matrix of forces - artistic, cultural, economic, political, governmental, and ideological - that gave rise to, shaped, and sustained this remarkable film movement. This engaging new study brings fresh perspectives, insights, and innovative approaches to a variety of films from a diversity of filmmakers. Areas of focus include the complex and contentious subjects of masculinity, femininity and feminism, the maternal, as well as the Indigenous road film and the protean Australian gothic. During the formative years of the revival, Australian filmsseemed to emerge from out of the blue in terms of global film history, with many features including Picnic at Hanging Rock(l975), Caddie(l976), The Last Wave(l977), The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith(l978), and My Brilliant Career (l979) receiving international distribution and enthusiastic critical acclaim with strong box office results. By the time the film revival was in full swing, not only did Australian audiences flock to theaters to see "homegrown" films, but the quantity of Australian films on overseas screens was so high that ardent critics declared this outpouring an Australian "New Wave." The eyes of the world had turned to a compelling and largely unknown culture.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
