520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Zusammenfassung: "This book excavates the diverse and mostly unnoticed political meanings made available to American and German audiences by the blockbuster films helmed by transplanted West German directors Roland Emmerich and Wolfgang Petersen. Through formal film analysis, broad consideration of American and German film criticism, and reflection on relevant political developments of the post-Cold War era, the book reveals how traces of Germany’s experience of dictatorship and wartime destruction find inadvertent cinematic expression in ways that helped American and German moviegoers find orientation in the changed political and cultural landscape of a newly globalized world. To complement and deepen the analysis of the Hollywood output of Emmerich and Petersen, the book juxtaposes the creative product of these transplanted directors to examples of a converse cinematic phenomenon considered under the label, American Babelsberg, which encompasses World War Two-themed films shot by American directors in Germany utilizing the production facilities at Babelsberg. Focus here is placed particularly on two high profile cinematic releases of the aughts, Valkyrie (2008), and Inglourious Basterds (2009). The magnetic attraction to, or nettlesome burden of, World War Two memories on these directors of American Babelsberg and German Hollywood is explained in this book by the entwined histories of Germans and Americans, the different challenges of national self-definition and renewal they faced in the post-Cold War world, and their longstanding and ongoing transatlantic discourse of political ideas and cultural ideals. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of film studies, politics, popular culture, and contemporary history"--Provided by publisher
