MTV utterly changed the movies. Since music television arrived
some 30 years ago, music videos have introduced filmmakers to a new
creative vocabulary: speeds of events changed, and performance and mood
came to dominate over traditional narrative storytelling. Popular Music
and the New Auteur charts the impact of music videos on seven visionary
directors: Martin Scorsese, Sofia Coppola, David Lynch, Wong Kar-Wai,
the Coen brothers, Quentin Tarantino, and Wes Anderson. These filmmakers
demonstrate a fresh kind of cinematic musicality by writing against pop
songs rather than against script, and allowing popular music a
determining role in narrative, imagery, and style. Featuring important
new theoretical work by some of the most provocative writers in the area
today, Popular Music and the New Auteur will be required reading for
all who study film music and sound. It will be particularly relevant for
readers in popular music studies, and its intervention in the ongoing
debate on
auteurism will make it necessary reading in film studies.
