3000 Leagues in Search of Mother $43 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! 3000 Leagues in Search of Mother is an anime series directed by Isao Takahata and aired in 1976. It is loosely based on a small part of the novel Heart (Cuore) by Edmondo De Amicis, i.e. the monthly tale (racconto mensile) From the Apennines to the Andes (Dagli Appennini alle Ande), widely expanded into a 52-episode epic. The series was broadcast on the World Masterpiece Theater, an animation staple that showcased each year an animated version of a different classical book or story, and was originally titled “From the Apennines to the Andes”. Nippon Animation, producers of the World Masterpiece Theater, would adapt Cuore into a second TV anime series in 1981, although this second series was not part of the WMT. A summarization movie was released in the 1980s using edited footage from the TV run. Nippon Animation also re-animated 3000 Leagues as a feature-length film in 1999, with a theme song performed by Scottish pop superstar Sheena Easton (“Carry a Dream”, which was included in her 1999 album called Home that was only released in Japan). |

A Third Face $18.95 Winner of Best Non-Fiction for 2002 Award from the Los Angeles Times Book Review! Samuel Fuller was one of the most prolific and independent writer-director-producers in Hollywood. His 29 tough, gritty films made from 1949 to 1989 set out to capture the truth of war, racism and human frailties, and incorporate some of his own experiences. His film Park Row was inspired by his years in the New York newspaper business, where his beat included murders, suicides, state executions and race riots. He writes about hitchhiking across the country at the height of the Great Depression. His years in the army in World War II are captured in his hugely successful pictures The Big Red One, The Steel Helmet and Merrill’s Marauders. Fuller’s other films include Pickup on South Street; Underworld U.S.A., a movie that shows how gangsters in the 1960s were seen as respected tax-paying executives; Shock Corridor, which exposed the conditions in mental institutions; and White Dog, written in collaboration with Curtis Hanson (L.A. Confidential), a film so controversial that Paramount’s then studio heads Jeffrey Katzenberg and Michael Eisner refused to release it. In addition to his work in film, Samuel Fuller (1911-1997) wrote eleven novels. He lived in Los Angeles with his wife and their daughter. A Third Face was completed by Jerome Henry Rudes, Fuller’s longtime friend, and his wife, Christa Lang Fuller. Fuller wasn’t one for tactful understatement and his hot-blooded, incident-packed autobiography is accordingly blunt … A Third Face is a grand, lively, rambunctious memoir. – Janet Maslin, The New York Times Fuller’s last work is a joy and an important addition to film and popular cultureliterature. – Publishers Weekly If you don’t like the films of Sam Fuller, then you just don’t like cinema. – Martin Scorsese, from the book’s introduction |

Adventures on Prime Time: The Television Programs of Stephen J. Cannell $106.47 Part of Praeger’s Media and Society Series, this volume breaks new ground in television studies as the first booklength study of an individual television producer. Robert J. Thompson examines the work of Stephen J. Cannell, one of television’s most prolific and successful producers. Thompson uses theories of film authorship revised for application to television texts and provides close analysis of Cannell’s programs, including individual episodes of The Rockford Files, The A-Team, and The Greatest American Hero. Moving away from the notion that a television series is the creation of an individual author, the book begins with a look at the televisionmaker. Thompson probes the polyauthorial nature of the medium and introduces a new method of studying television authorship. The book then turns to Cannell and a study of his career, focusing on how he developed the formula for his many highly rated television series. Students and teachers of television and television criticism will find Adventures on Prime Time a source of stimulating ideas about the nature of the medium. |

Whether working behind the scenes as producers or publicists, behind the cameras as writers, directors, or editors, or in front of the lens as flappers, vamps, or serial queens, hundreds of women made profound and lasting contributions to the evolution of the motion picture production. |

Animating The Cute, The Mean And The Beautiful $79.29 This study examines animation as the end product of a complicated relationship between conscious social exchanges and intelligent cultural management. By employing an ethnographic approach, the researcher investigated how animation, as a form of cultural product, was and is, produced and consumed in the global age, as transnational capital has reorganized the world economy toward a more globally integrated, task-segmented system. Taiwan was, and still is, one of the largest producers of animation in the world. However, the industry was founded in a dependent position within the subcontracting environment. It relied heavily on the pre and post-production skills of the client countries in the first world, such as the United States (Hollywood) and Japan. In the digital age, the animation industry attempts to move upwards along the value chain, creating full-length features, to adapt a live-action film to animation, and hopefully to spur a burgeoning video game industry. Despite a number of government-led projects, the brain-drain in narrative planning, storytelling and global marketing remains in the way of its quest. |
