A Companion to Michael Haneke (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Grundmann, Roy

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A Companion to Michael Haneke With a new preface addressing the Academy award-winning film, Amour, this new-in-paper edition has established itself as the definitive collection on Michael Haneke--from his early work in television and theater, through his prodigious cinematic output, to his 2009 triumph at Cannes. A Companion to Michael Haneke brings together essays by leading film scholars, as well as interviews with the director himself, to probe the provocative and controversial themes that have formed the nucleus of Haneke's work--intergenerational dysfunction and social alienation, colonialism and citizenship, surveillance and pornography, mass culture and media violence. The volume also offers a critical examination of the auteur's oeuvre, including Three Paths to the Lake, Lemmings, Benny's Video, The Piano Teacher, Caché, Funny Games, and the 2009 Palme d'Or winner, The White Ribbon.
