La fatale alleanza. Un secolo di guerre al cinema
Da uno dei più grandi critici cinematografici viventi, uno sguardo lucido e magistrale su un secolo di battaglie rappresentate sullo schermo e una meditazione sul rapporto spinoso tra guerra e cinema. "La fatale alleanza" non è una semplice cronologia o un'indagine standard sui film di guerra, anche se David Thomson rivolge il suo tipico sguardo penetrante a molti classici del genere e ad alcuni dei suoi film preferiti, da Niente di nuovo sul fronte occidentale a Il ponte sul fiume Kwai fino a Salvate il soldato Ryan. "La fatale alleanza" fa molto di più, esplorando come la guerra e il cinema nel XX secolo siano inestricabilmente legati. I film avevano cominciato a esistere solo all'inizio della Prima guerra mondiale, eppure in meno di un secolo hanno trasformato l'esperienza civile della guerra - e la storia stessa - per milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. Questa realtà è l'enigma morale al centro del libro di Thomson. I film di guerra danno prestigio e sono spesso campioni di incassi; ma c'è qualcosa di problematico nel fatto che gli spettatori apprezzino le rappresentazioni di violenza su larga scala, come Apocalypse Now, Black Hawk Down o persino Star Wars. E cosa dice questa verità su di noi, sulla nostra cultura e sul nostro mutevole senso della guerra e del passato?

The Fatal Alliance
"In The Fatal Alliance the acclaimed film critic David Thomson offers us one of his most provocative books yet--a rich, arresting, and troubling study of that most beloved genre: the war movie. It is not a standard history or survey of war films, although Thomson turns his typically piercing eye to many favorites--from All Quiet on the Western Front to The Bridge on the River Kwai to Saving Private Ryan. But The Fatal Alliance does much more, exploring how war and cinema in the twentieth century became inextricably linked. Movies had only begun to exist by the beginning of World War I, yet in less than a century, had transformed civilian experience of war--and history itself--for millions around the globe. This reality is the moral conundrum at the heart of Thomson's book. War movies bring both prestige and are so often box office blockbusters; but is there something problematic at how much moviegoers enjoy depictions of violence on a grand scale, such as Apocalypse Now, Black Hawk Down, or even Star Wars? And what does this truth say about us, our culture, and our changing sense of warfare and the past?"--

Suspects
Ultimately an examination on how movies affect the way we think and how film not only shapes our perceptions and our memories but in some ways comes to stand in for them, Suspects can be read as an unsettling examination of identity and the construction of self through the medium of narratives, or simply as a fascinating take on movie...
