Zusammenfassung: | <P>From 1972 to 1976, Hollywood made an unprecedented number of films targeted at black audiences. But following this era known as "blaxploitation," the momentum suddenly reversed for black filmmakers, and a large void separates the end of blaxploitation from the black film explosion that followed the arrival of Spike Lee?s <em>She's Gotta Have It</em> in 1986. Illuminating an overlooked era in African American film history, <em>Trying to Get Over</em> is the first in-depth study of black directors working during the decade between 1977 and 1986.</p><p>Keith Corson provides a fresh definition of blaxploitation, lays out a concrete reason for its end, and explains the major gap in African American representation during the years that followed. He focuses primarily on the work of eight directors?Michael Schultz, Sidney Poitier, Jamaa Fanaka, Fred Williamson, Gilbert Moses, Stan Lathan, Richard Pryor, and Prince?who were the only black directors making commercially distributed films in the decade following the blaxploitation cycle. Using the careers of each director and the twenty-four films they produced during this time to tell a larger story about Hollywood and the shifting dialogue about race, power, and access, Corson shows how these directors are a key part of the continuum of African American cinema and how they have shaped popular culture over the past quarter century.</p> |

Blaxploitation Reconsidered: African American Directors and the Political Economy of Hollywood -- Our Man in Hollywood: Creativity and Compromise in the Films of Michael Schultz -- Writing His Second Act: Sidney Poitier's Move Behind the Camera -- Think Locally, Act Globally: Fred "The Hammer" Williamson, Low-Budget Genre Filmmaking, and the Struggle for Self-Definition -- Outside of Society: Jamaa Fanaka, the LA Rebellion, and the Complications of Independent Filmmaking -- Dreams Deferred: Untapped Potential, the Transformation of Black Popular Culture, and the Cinematic Legacies of Gilbert Moses and Stan Lathan -- Dirty Minds Reformed: Celebrity, Power, and the Directorial Turns of Richard Pryor and Prince. <P>From 1972 to 1976, Hollywood made an unprecedented number of films targeted at black audiences. But following this era known as "blaxploitation," the momentum suddenly reversed for black filmmakers, and a large void separates the end of blaxploitation from the black film explosion that followed the arrival of Spike Lee?s <em>She's Gotta Have It</em> in 1986. Illuminating an overlooked era in African American film history, <em>Trying to Get Over</em> is the first in-depth study of black directors working during the decade between 1977 and 1986.</p><p>Keith Corson provides a fresh definition of blaxploitation, lays out a concrete reason for its end, and explains the major gap in African American representation during the years that followed. He focuses primarily on the work of eight directors?Michael Schultz, Sidney Poitier, Jamaa Fanaka, Fred Williamson, Gilbert Moses, Stan Lathan, Richard Pryor, and Prince?who were the only black directors making commercially distributed films in the decade following the blaxploitation cycle. Using the careers of each director and the twenty-four films they produced during this time to tell a larger story about Hollywood and the shifting dialogue about race, power, and access, Corson shows how these directors are a key part of the continuum of African American cinema and how they have shaped popular culture over the past quarter century.</p> African Americans in motion pictures. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85002011 African Americans in the motion picture industry. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85002012 African American motion picture producers and directors. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85001871 Motion pictures United States History 21st century.
