{"product_id":"jean-jacques-beineix-phil-powrie-9780719055331","title":"Jean-Jacques Beineix","description":"This volume is the first to examine, in either French or English, the films of Jean-Jacques Beineix, often seen as the best example of the 1980s cin駑a du look, with cult films, such as Diva and Betty Blue (37  2 le matin) \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e. After an introduction which places Beineix in the context of the 1980s and the arguments centering on a postmodern cinema, the volume devotes a chapter to each of Beineix's feature films, including the film which marked his return to feature film making after a break of a decade, Mortel Transfert (2001). Prefaced by an excellent foreword by the director himself, which includes a broad condemnation of French critics. Includes many illustrations direct from the director's own collection, complementing the interviews Powrie made with him and his collaborators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Powrie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719055334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719055331\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.16w x 0.59d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2002 pg. 1429","brand":"Philip Powrie","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990756819199,"sku":"9780719055331","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f9566ed-59e5-473c-bb8a-1ef6cf9f8e45.jpg?v=1683306500","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jean-jacques-beineix-phil-powrie-9780719055331","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
