Description
The Cinema of Germany explores the history of German cinema through 24 essays, each focusing on an individual film. This collection presents a 'national' film industry that successfully met the demand of its audience from the 1910s to the 1960s. Popular films such as Metropolis, Three from the Filling Station and The Great Love are featured alongside those from later decades like Yesterday Girl and Germany in Autumn, which broke with traditional narrative cinema. A new generation of filmmakers has since sought to re-establish a popular German cinema, as seen in films like The Boat, Run Lola Run and Goodbye Lenin!. This book provides a concise overview of the evolution of German cinema over several decades, shedding light on its key figures and films that shaped the industry's trajectory.
