All but one were made by independent companies that specialized in producing exploitation movies for drive-ins, neighborhood theaters, and rundown inner city theaters. Despised by critics, but welcomed by exhibitors denied first-run films, these cheaply and quickly produced movies were made to appeal to audiences of mobile youths. The films are repetitive, formulaic, and eminently forgettable, but there is a story to tell about all of the above, and it is one worth hearing. \u003ci\u003eHoodlum Movies\u003c\/i\u003e is not only about the films, its focus is on why and how these films were made, who they were made for, and how the cycle developed through the second half of the 1960s and came to a shuddering halt in 1972.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Stanfield\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813599016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813599014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rutgers University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 7.77w x 0.52d","brand":"Peter Stanfield","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44213396242687,"sku":"9780813599014","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f5009e6d-9560-4e10-abea-74e3b113d45a.jpg?v=1692113648","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hoodlum-movies-peter-stanfield-9780813599014","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
