"This introductory study of global film examines film production modes around the world and the ways in which they combine and overlap with each other, and with Hollywood, in a dynamic global film market. Roy Stafford considers examples of production, distribution and exhibition from Europe, Africa, South Asia, East Asia and Latin America in order to demonstrate both how the international industry works within certain conventional modes and also how distinctive local conditions can enable forms of difference. The textbook combines three approaches: industry-based study, formal analysis of narrative, genre and representation, and discussion of reception and local film cultures. "--.
