{"product_id":"new-transnationalisms-in-contemporary-latin-dolores-tierney-9781474431132","title":"New Transnationalisms in Contemporary Latin American Cinemas","description":"In the late 1990s and early 2000s Latin American films like \u003cem\u003eAmores perros, Y tu mamá también\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eCidade de Deus \u003c\/em\u003eenjoyed an unprecedented level of critical and commercial success in the world market. Benefitting from external financial and\/or creative input, these films were considered examples of transnational cinema. Through a textual analysis of six filmmakers (Alejandro González Iñárritu, Alfonso Cuarón, Guillermo del Toro, Fernando Meirelles, Walter Salles and Juan José Campanella), this book examines these transnational films and the subsequent wave of commercially successful 'deterritorialised' films by the same directors. It argues that although films produced within the structures of the United States film industry may have been commercially successful, they are not necessarily apolitical or totally divorced from key notions of national or continental identity. Bringing a new perspective to the films of Latin America's transnational auteurs, this is a major contribution towards understanding how different genres function across different cultures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dolores Tierney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474431135\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474431132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/10\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Dolores Tierney","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935512133887,"sku":"9781474431132","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_745bd954-98b1-45c1-9c3a-c6945e5d7ade.jpg?v=1681420225","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/new-transnationalisms-in-contemporary-latin-dolores-tierney-9781474431132","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
