The profound influence of the Hollywood musical across
geographical and cultural boundaries has long been neglected. This
original collection of essays seeks to initiate a new critical debate by
approaching classic Hollywood films from perspectives such as
'musicology'. Broadening the scope of previous studies, this volume also
examines the manner in which European cinema appropriated the musical
to create new meanings. It provides an innovative reading of the
influence of the musical on youth culture, and its endorsement in modern
dance movies and the music video.
The volume covers the themes of:
• Music and Structure
• Classical Hollywood Musical Cinematic Practice
• Star Texts
• European Musical Forms
• Minority Identities
• Youth Cultures
This
is an entertaining and valuable text for students on degree courses in
Film and Music. Thought-provoking and authoritative, it will also be a
welcome resource for those researching and teaching in the area.
