Genre - or 'type' - is a core concept in both film
production and the history of film. Genres play a key role in how
moviegoers perceive and rate films, and is likely to determine a
film's production values and costs.
Written in a clear, engaging, jargon-free style, this volume
offers a cutting-edge theoretical overview of the topic of genre as
practiced in British, American and French film criticism. Organized
by a series of simple but fundamental questions, the book uses
numerous examples from classic Hollywood cinema (the western,
drama, musical comedy, and film noir) as well as some more
contemporary examples from European or Asian cinema that are so
often neglected by other studies in the field. How do we
characterize genre and what are its various functions? In what ways
does genre give a film its identity? How do genres emerge? What is
the cultural significance of genre and how does it circulate within
and across national boundaries? Informative and user-friendly,
Moine's book is accessible to general readers and adapts
easily to a wide range of teaching approaches.
