Tracing the birth of film festivals in Australia in the 1950s through to their present abundance, it asks why film festivals have prospered as audience-driven spectacles throughout Australia, while never developing the same industry and market foci of their international fellows. Drawing on over sixty-years of archival records, festival commentary, interviews with festival insiders and ephemera, this book opens up a largely uncharted history of film culture activity in Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kirsten Stevens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1137586370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781137586377\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/10\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.65h x 6.11w x 0.81d","brand":"Kirsten Stevens","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44410571456767,"sku":"9781137586377","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3337019c-dc2f-4081-9bd0-90668b29b843.jpg?v=1697536802","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/australian-film-festivals-kirsten-stevens-9781137586377","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
