Description

"The history of postwar German cinema has most often been told as a story of failure, a failure paradoxically epitomized by the remarkable popularity of film throughout the late 1940s and 1950s. Through the analysis of 10 representative films, Hester Baer reassesses this period, looking in particular at how the attempt to dismantle the dream factory of Nazi entertainment cinema resulted in a new cinematic language which developed as a result of the changing audience demographic."--BOOK JACKET.
