Relatively unexplored, however, has been the profound environmental sensibility that characterized movies such as \u003cem\u003eThe Wild Bunch\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eChinatown\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eNashville\u003c\/em\u003e. This brisk and engaging study explores how many hallmarks of New Hollywood filmmaking, such as the increased reliance on location shooting and the rejection of American self-mythologizing, made the era such a vividly \"grounded\" cinematic moment. Synthesizing a range of narrative, aesthetic, and ecocritical theories, it offers a genuinely fresh perspective on one of the most studied periods in film history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e O'Brien Adam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1800737238\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781800737235\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/13\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"O'Brien Adam","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44077512065279,"sku":"9781800737235","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e85eb51a-b857-411d-8b5a-6e0cea313c66.jpg?v=1685470379","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/transactions-with-the-world-obrien-adam-9781800737235","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
