Disney/Pixar The Art of Toy Story 5

An exquisite visual and lyrical portrait of Susie Cave that unites the creative talents of four icons - celebrated writer and musician Nick Cave, renowned photographer Dominique Issermann, superstar designer Irma Boom and Susie Cave herself. 'Through the countless words I have written about Susie, in song and prose, my prime concern has been to contain Susie's fleeting nature. Yet, Susie remains as much a mystery to me now as when I first saw her' Nick Cave In the beginning there was Susie and Nick. Later the twins, Arthur and Earl. And along on this journey was Dominique Issermann, capturing the photographs gathered in this powerful book. Nick Cave's profound devotion to his wife Susie is present in the imagery crafted through his words and lyrics since they met in 1997. Their long-standing friend, photographer Dominique Issermann, has spent years attempting the same task on film, captured here in episodic bursts. The result: a mirror held up to Susie - the ethereal presence - whose form beguiles and evades the lens. There are many characters within and many Susies to record. In her own words, the role Susie feels most true to is that of mother, and this book is an extraordinary testament to its power. It offers a poignant visual account of both the devastating loss of a beloved child and the deep comfort found in the one who remains. With reflections from Nick and Susie throughout, this is a book to cherish: it affirms faith in art, enchantment, beauty and the strength of the human spirit. It is a visual ode to love, to family and to Susie.

From cinema's most distinguished and 'The best writer on film in our time' (Michael Ondaatje) comes a masterful assessment of the whole sweep of movie history 'The movies traded on the liberation of secret desires-drive that car as fast as you can; turn your humble abode into a palace; conquer all the mean spirits in the world; be as free and winsome as the Tramp yet as rich as Charlie ... Every lowlife can be a Corleone.'Every flicker of light has its shadow. In this masterful reassessment of the whole arc of movie history, David Thomson, film's wisest and most penetrating critic, shows us how cinema has entranced and transported us, but also profoundly changed us.From the earliest days of the first picture shows to the screens of today, Thomson glories in the great movies. Sharp, arresting readings of films from Metropolis to Rear Window, The Godfather to Anora can be found in these pages. Yet there is unease, too, at how cinema suckered us into a fantasy neverland that only looks like life. Hungry for spectacle and happy endings, submitting to voyeurism and villainy, we have let films change the way we experience reality; a habit of passivity that may have even betrayed our culture and our politics.As Thomson says, 'This is our history, and our show.' The result of a lifetime of immersion and reflection, this book is a reckoning and a testament from a writer who sees like no other.

In this follow up to their original 100 Cult Films volume, Ernest Mathijs and Xavier Mendik provide a guide to one hundred more incredible films, from the 1911 Italian silent Dante's Inferno to Ti West's horror trilogy X, Pearl (2022) and MaXXXine (2024). This richly illustrated guide addresses the work of filmmakers including Stanley Kubrick, Paul Verhoeven, Ana Lily Amirpour, Stephanie Rothman, Rob Reiner and Dario Argento, with movies hailing from Iran to Brazil, South Korea to Sweden, Japan to the USA, and from the high North to the Australian outback. 100 Cult Films: The Sequel presents an alchemy of genres including science-fiction, romance, horror, musical, vampire, comedy and action, and through the debates and controversies that surround them raises issues about identity, home, belonging, exoticism, censorship, and what it means to be truly 'weird'. By presenting 100 films that confirm and interrogate the notion of what makes a film a 'cult film', 100 Cult Films: The Sequel reignites the conversation about cult cinema while affirming its foundations in today's volatile and vibrant cultural climate.

'So well written and so interesting. The stories and some of the details are just amazing . . . I loved it.' Marina Hyde, The Rest is Entertainment podcast Coppola - The Godfather Spielberg - Jaws Lucas - Star Wars This is story of the most successful group of friends in the history of cinema and how they reshaped it forever. The Last Kings of Hollywood tells the thrilling, dramatic inside story of how the three filmmakers rivalled and supported each other, fell out and reconciled, and struggled to reinvent popular American cinema. Along the way, Coppola directed The Godfather, then the highest-grossing film of all-time, until Spielberg surpassed it with Jaws - whose record Lucas broke with Star Wars, which Spielberg surpassed again with E.T. By the early 1980s, they were the richest, best-known filmmakers in the world, each with an empire of their own. The Last Kings of Hollywood is an unprecedented chronicle of their rise, their dreams and demons, their triumphs and their failures - intimate, extraordinary, and supremely entertaining.

Melland Schill Perspectives on International Law

Why are constitutionalist ideals so prominent in science fiction? Does Independence Day depict self-defence as a legal concept with absolute limits? Is international law lost in space? This innovative interdisciplinary volume represents the first exploration of the relationship between international law and cinema. From Star Wars to Werner Herzog, The Godfather to The West Wing, this book uncovers a diverse range of representations of international law and its norms in film and television. Examining the wider links between international law, cinema and ideology, the contributions not only examine visual representations of international law, but they offer an essential insight into the functions fulfilled by these cinematic representations. Providing an extraordinary introduction to a variety of perspectives on core international legal questions, Cinematic perspectives on international law extends a valuable methodology by which international lawyers can critique the depiction of international law in film.

It is an open secret that the hardware in our smart devices contains plastics and raw materials mined from conflict regions. Can we move beyond this oppressive system of extraction to find ethical alternatives? Feminist hackers Patrícia Reis and Stefanie Wuschitz&nbsp;discuss developing technology through eco-feminist artistic tools, rooted in care economies, local knowledges and collective survival. Through an intensive knowledge-sharing process and collaboration with peers, they unpack eco-feminist theory and practices to propose resistance strategies grounded in ethical hardware and de-growth economies - contributing significantly to the new field of arts-based research.
