Description: | This book examines how far the collapse of the Soviet Union represented a threshold that initiated change and whether there are continuities which gradually reshaped cinema in the new Russia. It considers a range of films and film-makers and explores their attitudes to genre, character and aesthetic style. This book, based on extensive original research, examines how far the collapse of the Soviet Union represented a threshold that initiated change or whether there are continuities which gradually reshaped cinema in the new Russia. The book considers a wide range of films and film-makers and explores their attitudes to genre, character and aesthetic style. The individual chapters demonstrate that, whereas genres shifted and characters developed, stylistic choices remained largely unaffected. |
