This introduction to American independent cinema offers both
a comprehensive industrial and economic history of the sector
from the early twentieth century to the present, and a study of
key individual films, filmmakers and film companies.
Ordered chronologically, the book begins with independent
filmmaking in the studio era (examining both top-rank and
low-end independent film production), before it moves to
the 1950s and 1960s (discussing the adoption of independent
filmmaking as the main method of studio production and
exploring its relationship to exploitation filmmaking) and the
1970s (focusing on how independent film production was
organised in the years of the Hollywood Renaissance and under
the increased conglomeration of the American film industry).
The book finishes with a detailed examination of contemporary
American independent cinema (exploring such areas as the rise
of the mini-majors and the studios specialty film divisions, the
institutionalisation of independent cinema in the 1990s and its
on-going transformation under the impact of media convergence
and digital technology). Each chapter includes case studies which
focus on specific films, filmmakers and companies.
Thoroughly updated to include developments from the mid-
2000s onwards, this second edition includes new case studies,
a new chapter analysing recent industrial, institutional and
technological changes that have transformed the sector, a new
prologue, a new epilogue that explores American independent
cinema s relationship to television and an enhanced bibliography.
