From the rear cover
AUTHOR APPROVED Traditions in World Cinema General Editors: Linda Badley and R. Barton Palmer Founding Editor: Steven Jay Schneider This series introduces diverse and fascinating movements in world cinema. Each volume concentrates on a set of films from a different national, regional or, in some cases, cross-cultural cinema which constitute a particular tradition. The New Neapolitan Cinema Alex Marlow-Mann Vito and the Others (1991), Death of a Neapolitan Mathematician (1992) and Libera (1993), the debuts of three young Neapolitan filmmakers, stood out dramatically from the landscape of Italian cinema in the early 1990s. On the back of their critical success, over the next decade and a half, Naples became a thriving centre for film production. In this first study in English, Alex Marlow-Mann provides a detailed, multi-faceted and provocative study of this distinct regional tradition. In tracing the movement's relationship with the popular musical melodramas previously produced in Naples, he reveals how contemporary filmmakers have interrogated, subverted and reconfigured cinematic convention as part of a comprehensive re-examination of Neapolitan identity. Key features include: * Analyses of over 45 contemporary Italian films, including Paolo Sorrentino's The Consequences of Love, Mario Martone's L'amore molesto and Antonio Capuano's Pianese Nunzio: 14 in May. * A theoretical discussion of regional cinema and the place of Neapolitan Cinema in the wider context of the European film industry. Alex Marlow-Mann is the Research Coordinator at the Centre for Film Studies of the University of St Andrews. He has taught at the universities of Reading, Cardiff and Leeds and published numerous articles on Italian cinema. [ENDORSEMENT TO FOLLOW]
