Bollywood, the latest in Wallflower Press's Short Cuts introductory series, surveys this style of filmmaking from its origins in colonial times to the present, tracing its impact on both the Indian and global imagination. Chapters explore the history and workings of the industry, the narratives and aesthetics of its films, varieties within the genre, the cultural connotations of specific characters, its larger-than-life stars, and its hybrid and surprising fan cultures. Readings of popular and widely available films illustrate the importance of the cinema's conventions, which range from romantic clichés to a constant negotiation between tradition and modernity.  Order Now and Save 30%!   $20.00 $14.00 Use discount code BOLVAR at check-out £14.00 | Paper | 144 pages * Customers in the UK, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, and South Africa should contact customer@wiley.com  FOLLOW COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS:
