DIE FILMANALYSE - KINO ANDERS GEDACHT

https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0CH26WYSR

Seit mehr als zehn Jahren steht Wolfgang M. Schmitt für Die Filmanalyse. Dieser Band versammelt über 120 seiner scharfsinnigen und stets ideologiekritischen Besprechungen. Hier erfahren wir unter anderem, warum wir Forrest Gump hassen sollten, warum Blade Runner 2049 besser ist als das legendäre Original, was Vertigo zum besten Film aller Zeiten macht, wieso der allseits beliebte König der Löwen der schlimmste Film der langen Disneygeschichte ist und warum The Shape of Water seine Oscars nicht verdient hat. An welche Kultfilme erinnern wir uns aus gutem Grund und wo wird unser Blick von der rosarot beschlagenen Nostalgiebrille getrübt? Wo treten die Probleme des vielgescholtenen deutschen Kinos besonders schmerzhaft zutage, wo glimmen dennoch Hoffnungsschimmer auf? Steckt in Kinderfilmen wirklich nur harmlose Zerstreuung? Ist das Kino in Zeiten von Serienboom und Streaminganbietern überhaupt noch zu retten? Und was haben Marx, Foucault, und Freud mit all dem zu tun?

"Red is an excellent storyteller and has created characters that draw us into this story of trauma and s*xual adventure. He has brought together an erotic thriller with a coming-of-age story that held me captive for the entire read."

“In Don’t Stand So Close, Eric Red takes what, at first, seems like a typical teen 'coming-of-age' s*x romp and leads it down a very dark and twisted path. Being Hot For Teacher’ has never been more disturbing.” —Nancy A. Collins, author of Sunglasses After Dark

Thanks to to great folks at JoBlo and Arrow in the Head for this shout-out for our upcoming Eric Red novel "Don't Stand So Close". It's for pre-order now and will hit amazon and the book stores in August!

The Lost Boys and Flatliners director Joel Schumacher called Eric Red's first novel Don't Stand So Close “Titillating and original.

"Heute haben die Filme von Hand In Hand ihre frühere Sichtbar- und Verfügbarkeit weitestgehend wieder eingebüßt – und damit ist das Lebenswerk eines Visionärs und genialen Filmemachers, eines der besten und aufregendsten des 20. Jahrhunderts, davon bedroht, in Vergessenheit zu geraten. Good Hot Stuff, als Buch selbst ein cinephiles Traumprojekt, das sich in wunderbar ausschweifendem Umfang und intimer Kenntnis seinem Gegenstand auf Augenhöhe stellt, stemmt sich dagegen mit aller Leidenschaft, die ein solches filmisches Werk in einem entfachen kann."
