British Cinema in the Fifties Summary
| In British Cinema in the Fifties, Geraghty examines some of the most popular films of this period, exploring the ways in which they reworked contemporary social issues and themes such as national identity. |
|
|
| In the fifties, British cinema won large audiences with popular war films and comedies, creating stars such as Dirk Bogarde and Kay Kendall, and introducing the stereotypes of the war hero. Through a series of case studies on films as diverse as "It Always Rains on" "Sunday," "Genevieve" and "The Wrong Arm of the Law," Geraghty explores some of the key debates on British cinema and film theory. |
