Las dictaduras de la segunda mitad del siglo XX coexistieron con procesos de expansión y consolidación de la televisión. Los Estados autoritarios conjugaron de maneras complejas los objetivos de un orden político basado en principios de jerarquía, tradicionalismo y paternalismo autoritario con un modelo de entretenimiento de masas que tensionaba esos valores. La televisión profundizó procesos de globalización, provocando la coexistencia de la suspensión del Estado de derecho con lógicas liberales del ejercicio de la comunicación, a la vez que resultó una oportunidad para promover una imagen positiva de la situación interna de los países ante una audiencia global.

"In the two decades after World War II, a vibrant cultural infrastructure of cineclubs, archives, festivals, and film schools took shape in Latin America through the labor of film enthusiasts who worked in concert with French and France-based organizations. In promoting the emerging concept and practice of art cinema, these film-related institutions advanced geopolitical and class interests simultaneously in a polarized Cold War climate. Seeking to sharpen viewers' critical faculties as a safeguard against ideological extremes in cinema, institutions of film culture lent prestige to Latin America's growing middle classes and capitalized on official and unofficial efforts to boost the circulation of French cinema, enhancing the nation's soft power in the wake of military defeat and occupation. As the first book-length, transnational analysis of postwar Latin American film culture, Transatlantic Cinephilia deepens our understanding of how institutional networks have nurtured alternative and nontheatrical cinemas"--
Best known for his 1979 film David, Peter Lilienthal was an unusual figure within postwar filmmaking circles. A child refugee from Nazi Germany who grew up in Uruguay, he was uniquely situated at the crossroads of German, Jewish, and Latin American cultures: while his work emerged from West German auteur filmmaking, his films bore the unmistakable imprints of Jewish thought and the militant character of New Latin American cinema. Peter Lilienthal is the first comprehensive study of Lilienthal’s life and career, highlighting the distinctively cross-cultural and transnational dimensions of his oeuvre, and exploring his role as an early exemplar of a more vibrant, inclusive European film culture.

Escuchando al cine chileno (1957-1969). Las películas desde sus bandas sonoras, de José María Moure Moreno, es un libro que abre nuevos derroteros a la “lectura” o a la “escucha” de nuestro cine en un periodo fundamental. […] la investigación de José María Moure es un aporte que abre nuevas posibilidades no solo para los estudios de cine, sino para el lector que se aproxima a la riqueza del audiovisual sin haber visto antes las películas o conociéndolas previamente o para quienes transitan por el mundo de la música […] El análisis desde la banda sonora es un especie de hilo de Ariadna que nos lleva por un laberinto en el cual van descubriéndose múltiples aristas que n...
