It links the aims and struggles of Americans making socially conscious films about racial discrimination to a broader category of image warfare known as Third Cinema. Third Cinema is generally applied to the notable proliferation of politically engaged films and revolutionary filmmaking theories developed in economically depressed and/or colonially exploited countries.

  • The Ima Ginary Geography of Hollyw Ood Cinema 1960
    CHRISTIAN B. LONG THE IMAGINARY GEOGRAPHY OF HOLLYWOOD CINEMA 1960–2000 CINEMA GEOGRAPHY OF HOLLYWOOD THE IMAGINARY The Imaginary Geography of Hollywood Cinema 1960–2000 combines digital cartography with close readings of representative films from 1960–2000. Christian B. Long offers a unique history of twentieth-century Hollywood narrative cinema, one that is focused on the intersection of the geographies of narrative location, production, consumption and taste in the era before the rise of digital cinema. Long redraws the boundaries of film history, both literally and figuratively, by cataloguing films’ narrative locations on digital maps in order to illustrate where Hollywood actually locates its narratives over time.
