{"product_id":"german-expressionist-cinema-ian-roberts-9781905674602","title":"German Expressionist Cinema: The World of Light and Shadow","description":"Before Hollywood's golden age, German expressionist film was arguably the most important cinematic movement in the medium's history. These 'symphonies of... iridescent movement' of Weimar cinema provide some of cinema's most iconic images, and its vivid contrasts and dark spaces constitute a major influence on Hollywood classics such as \u003ci\u003eCitizen Kane\u003c\/i\u003e (1941) and \u003ci\u003eSunset Boulevard \u003c\/i\u003e(1950). This volume also offers insights into the technical and thematic developments of the Weimar film. Covering classics such as \u003ci\u003eThe Cabinet of Doctor Caligari\u003c\/i\u003e (1920) and \u003ci\u003eNosferatu\u003c\/i\u003e (1922) as well as under-appreciated examples such as Asphalt (1929), this volume forms an essential introduction to one of cinema's most historically important movements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ian Roberts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1905674600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781905674602\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wallflower Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/21\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.80w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009","brand":"Ian Roberts","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939118842111,"sku":"9781905674602","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7c0187ac-c803-4b44-ad18-af4307a6938b.jpg?v=1681439606","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/german-expressionist-cinema-ian-roberts-9781905674602","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
