About this product
Product Information
At a moment in history when the status of minorities, particularly ethno-racial minorities, is the subject of intense, often acrimonious debate, this book offers a timely and relevant discussion of the core themes of assimilation, interculturation, and identity in the oeuvre of three independent American filmmakers: Scorsese, Allen, and Lee.

In a sequence of incisive analyses, James F. Scott demonstrates the foundational importance of ethnicity and race in the works of three of America's most prominent film directors. His attentive readings take due account of the congruities and divergences in each director's treatment of these major themes, most especially as they bear upon personal and artistic development and equally upon current issues of social identity and conflict., In the early 1990s--as independent films began to reflect the social tumult of US society--television and film producer James Scott (emer., English and film studies) began to follow the specific issues of identity, ethnicity, and race as treated in the films of Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, and Spike Lee. Scott chose these three because they represent social groups that had well-documented struggles with identity, social integration, and justice. This book derives from his investigations. Scott introduces his analyses with an extensive preface and summarizes his observations in an epilogue. He devotes a chapter to each filmmaker, and each receives a thorough consideration. Each film selected for study gets a detailed analysis based on, among other things, characters, plot structure, and directorial decisions. In addition, Scott traces the social influences through key historians, among them Frederick Jackson Turner, Grant Madison, and Israel Zangwell. The volume is enhanced by a 280-item bibliography and a 17-page index. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty., Jim Scott's, erudite, energetic, and wonderfully written book, Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, Spike Lee: Ethnicity, Race, and Identity in the American Independent Film provides a crucial glimpse into an important area of the aesthetic production of the 1990s and the way the decade has affected the 21st century understanding of what it means to be an American. This books easily stands with The People v. O. J. Simpson as a major glimpse into the emerging picture of what now must be seen as one of the most important decades of the previous century., In the early 1990s--as independent films began to reflect the social tumult of US society--television and film producer James Scott (emer., English and film studies) began to follow the specific issues of identity, ethnicity, and race as treated in the films of Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, and Spike Lee.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
