Fast fun readBy 007To anyone who likes the hard boiled detective stories, pick this up. I was surprised to find out that Shaft was a book character before he became a movie star. This series reads much like a black version of Mike Hammer. Very cool!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Shaft....Can You Dig It!By TLC50Awesome. Book!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Decent PulpBy Golgotha 23Pretty solid, if you care enough to know were Shaft as a character, mean, determined, angry, cool, takes nonsense from no one, but like most pulp fiction, it's pretty forgettable, I would like to see a reprint of the whole series. Who is John Shaft? John Shaft is a private eye. John Shaft is a black man made of muscle and ice, and he has no prejudices. John Shaft will kill anyone... black or white. When the cloistered daughter of Harlem's crime boss discovers the true nature of her father's work, she runs off to be as bad as Dad. By the time she disappears, she's into sex, liquor, dope, and a few other scenes. Now, Big Daddy wants Shaft to get his baby back. The tough, take-no-guff detective goes to work... and the Mafia, the Black militants, the NYPD, and City Hall go to work on him. The original and unabridged Shaft novel by Ernest Tidyman, the 1970 tour de force of hardboiled crime fiction that introduced an unsuspecting world to a cultural icon.

  • Film, Politics, and Ideology: Reflections on Hollywood Film in the Age of Reagan* Douglas Kellner (
    Film, Politics, and Ideology: Reflections on Hollywood Film in the Age of Reagan* Douglas Kellner (http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/faculty/kellner/) In our book Camera Politica: Politics and Ideology in Contemporary Hollywood Film (1988), Michael Ryan and I argue that Hollywood film from the 1960s to the present was closely connected with the political movements and struggles of the epoch. Our narrative maps the rise and decline of 60s radicalism; the failure of liberalism and rise of the New Right in the 1970s; and the triumph and hegemony of the Right in the 1980s. In our interpretation, many 1960s films transcoded the discourses of the anti-war, New Left student movements, as well as the feminist, black power, sexual liberationist, and countercultural movements, producing a new type of socially critical Hollywood film. Films, on this reading, transcode, that is to say, translate, representations, discourses, and myths of everyday life into specifically cinematic terms, as when Easy Rider translates and organizes the images, practices, and discourses of the 1960s counterculture into a cinematic text. Popular films intervene in the political struggles of the day, as when 1960s films advanced the agenda of the New Left and the counterculture. Films of the "New Hollywood," however, such as Bonnie and Clyde, Medium Cool, Easy Rider, etc., were contested by a resurgence of rightwing films during the same era (e.g. Dirty Harry, The French Connection, and any number of John Wayne films), leading us to conclude that Hollywood film, like U.S. society, should be seen as a contested terrain and that films can be interpreted as a struggle of representation over how to construct a social world and everyday life.

  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

  • Great Movie Soundtracks, Part 2
    Great movie soundtracks brought to you by HOOPLA! With HOOPLA, you can stream movies, television, e-books, audiobooks and comics – and also music. They carry over 7000 soundtracks, so I narrowed it down to my twenty favorites. Here’s part two of my favorites. La La Land (2016) Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling star Mia, an aspiring actress/barista, and Sebastian, a struggling jazz musician, who fall in love in backdrop of Los Angeles; an homage to the old musicals with a modern twist. The Oscar winning soundtrack includes original, catchy tunes, my favorite being the opening number “Another Day of Sun” – a dance sequence filmed on a real LA Freeway. The Mambo Kings (1992) Armand Assante and Antonio Banderas star as the musician brothers Cesar and Nestor who leave Cuba for America in the 1950’s, hoping to hit the top of the Latin music scene. Soundtrack features many big names from the world of latin jazz and salsa music, including songs by Arturo Sandoval, Celia Cruz, Tito Puente, and Mambo All-Stars. Mamma Mia! (2008) A bride-to-be tries to find her real father told using hit songs by the popular 1970’s group ABBA. If you need an ABBA fix, here it is. National Lampoon's Animal House (1978) John Belushi stars in one of the most irreverent, politically incorrect comedies of all time - follows a group of rowdy fraternity brothers at the fictional Faber College in 1962 and all their shenanigans. Soundtrack includes early sixties classics by Sam Cooke, Lloyd Williams, Paul & Paula, and Stephen Bishop.
