Late Godard and the Possibilities of Cinema
“Late Godard and the Possibilities of Cinema is an exhilarating and extremely lucid analysis of the way Godard ‘thinks’ in, of, and through cinema. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of French culture, politics and theory, Morgan skillfully illustrates the complex relations between history, aesthetics, and nature in the director’s later works. Defying criticism of Godard’s alleged retreat from politics, this book provides compelling, detailed, and erudite analyses of his later films and illuminates the auteur’s political and aesthetic response to the so-called ‘death of cinema.’”— Mary Ann Doane, author of The Emergence of Cinematic Time: Modernity, Contingency, the Archi...
The Goddard Book
Family history and genealogical data about all the 69 immigrant Goddard/ Godards who immigrated to the New World, of which 63 involved family units with lineage. These immigrant Goddards are classified by the century in which they arrived, followed thereafter by descendants and relatives in various parts of the United States and Canada. Those families immigrating earlier naturally had the longest lineage. There were 12 immigrant families in the 1600s, 6 in the 1700s, 53 in the 1800s, and 12 in the 1900s. All of these are covered in v. 1, as well as others where the immigrant ancestor has not yet been clearly identified. Vol. 2 deals with ancestry in the British Isles, France and elsewhere in Europe, as well as more data about descendants and relatives in North America of earlier English immigrants.
Satyajit Ray on Cinema
Satyajit Ray, one of the greatest auteurs of twentieth century cinema, was a Bengali motion-picture director, writer, and illustrator who set a new standard for Indian cinema with his Apu Trilogy: Pather Panchali (Song of the Little Road) (1955), Aparajito (The Unvanquished) (1956), and Apur Sansar (The World of Apu) (1959).

Spanning forty years of Ray's career, these essays, for the first time collected in one volume, ...

Proibito!
From its birth in 1913 to its abolition in 2021, film censorship marked the history of Italian cinema, and its evolution mirrored the social, political, and cultural travail of the country. During the Fascist regime and in the postwar period, censorship was a powerful political tool in the hands of the ruling party; many films were banned or severely cut. By the end of the 1960s, censors had to cope with the changing morals and the widespread diffusion of sexuality in popular culture, which led to the boom of hardcore pornography. With the crisis of the national industry and the growing influence of television, censorship gradually changed its focus and targets. The book analyzes Italian film censorship from its early days to the present, discussing the most controversial cases and protagonists. These include such notorious works as Last Tango in Paris and Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom, and groundbreaking filmmakers such as Luchino Visconti, Federico Fellini and Pier Paolo Pasolini, who pushed the limits of what was acceptable on screen, causing scandal and public debate.
