ISBN-13: 978-1-138-67577-3, ISBN: 1-138-67577-6

The book considers a wide range of films and film-makers and explores their attitudes to genre, character and aesthetic style. The individual chapters demonstrate that, whereas genres shifted and characters dev ..."

"This book examines the fate of post-Soviet press freedom and media culture in the context of the growing impact of globalisation.

ISBN-13: 978-1-84885-906-7, ISBN: 1-84885-906-6

"Alexander Sokurov's 'Russian Ark' is generally acclaimed as a milestone in cinematography. In this film Sokurov reversed the idea of montage, creating instead the sensation of an uninterrupted flow of time encompassing three centuries of Russia's cultural history through a single, 90-minute take. Yet this film is but one milestone in the work of this versatile director. Since the 1990s, Sokurov's films have had international recognition ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-86064-390-3, ISBN: 1-86064-390-6

"Irina Mazurkevich graduates from a bit part in You are My Only One to a leading role in Everything will be OK, while other actors, notably Valentin Bukin and Viktor Gogolev, play a variety of secondary parts. All these connections lead us to look at the films as a kind of single text, offering ever more abstract and theoretical variations on an archetypal pattern, culminating in the hints of metatextuality in The Fourth Planet.** A ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-412-16606-9, ISBN: 3-412-16606-5

"Neben Literatur und Kunst ist es gerade der Film, in dem die Verschrankung von Stillstand und Dynamik ihren Ausdruck findet, die fur die Kultur des osteuropaischen Raums nach 1945 so kennzeichnend ist. In seinen Bildern lasst der osteuropaische Film diese eigentumliche Zeitstruktur asthetisch erlebbar werden und findet dabei zu jener Poetik der filmischen Zeit-Bilder von toten Zeiten in leeren Raumen, die der franzosische Philosoph Gill ..."

The fourth is Pushkin at school, the thinker and commentator, played by Leonid Filatov.
