Neo-Authoritarian Masculinity in Brazilian Crime Film
An incisive analysis of contemporary crime film in Brazil, this book focuses on how movies in this genre represent masculinity and how their messages connect to twenty-first-century sociopolitical issues. Jeremy Lehnen argues that these films promote an agenda in support of the nation’s recent swing toward authoritarianism that culminated in the 2018 election of far-right president Jair Bolsonaro. Lehnen examines the integral role of masculinity in several archetypal crime films, most of which foreground urban violence, including Cidade de Deus, Quase Dois Irmãos, Tropa de Elite, O Homem do Ano, and O Doutrinador. Within these films, Lehnen finds representations that criminalize the poor,...
The Film Industry in Brazil
Looking back through the prism of the severe economic crisis for filmmaking in the 1980s, The Film Industry in Brazil explores the unusual relationship between the state-supported industry, which often produced politically radical films, and the authoritarian regime that had held sway for twenty years. To ground his analysis, Johnson covers the early years of the film industry, 1898-1930; attempts at industrialization during the 1930s and 1940s; film industry congresses and government film boards, 1950-1966; the National Film Institute, 1966-1975; and the expansion of the state's role from 1969 through 1980.Well-conceived, carefully researched and documented, Johnson's study fills a major gap in film studies by tracing the development of this industry in Brazil, focusing specifically on its relationship to the state.

Global Film Color
Global Film Color: The Monopack Revolution at Midcentury explores color filmmaking in a variety of countries and regions including India, China, Japan, and Russia, and across Europe and Africa. Most previous accounts of color film have concentrated on early 20th century color processes and Technicolor. Far less is known about the introduction and application of color technologies in the period from the mid-1940s to the 1980s, when photochemical, “monopack” color stocks came to dominate global film markets. As Eastmancolor, Agfacolor, Fujicolor and other film stocks became broadly available and affordable, national film industries increasingly converted to color, transforming the look and feel of global cinema. Covering a broad range of perspectives, the chapters explore themes such as transnational flows, knowledge exchange and transfer, the cyclical and asymmetrical circulation of technology in a global context, as well as the accompanying transformation of color film aesthetics in the postwar decades.
La Ghessa
Ela poderia estar brilhando entre Claudia Cardinale, Sophia Loren e Gina Lollobrigida, pois talento e beleza não lhe faltavam e continua não lhe faltando até os dias de hoje. Mas, para felicidade nossa, a italianinha Rossana Ghessa escolheu o Brasil para amar e fazer muito sucesso. Adesso Rossana! Chegou ao Brasil ainda menininha e iniciou sua homérica carreira artística aos 17 anos, como modelo, depois de ganhar um concurso de beleza, e só não seguiu tal carreira, porque o cinema falou mais alto. Ainda bem. Ao lado dessa incrível e criativa figura humana/atriz, tive a honra de contracenar em vários filmes, todos inesquecíveis. Cheguei mesmo a gostar muito dela como mulher, lá pel...
