An interesting look into how the jukebox repetoire of pop cinema has evolved and where it is going. Anthology. Eleven essays from diverse perspectives of film critics, film-makers and musicians.


Robert de Niro cruising into a Little Italy bar to the sound of the Stones in Mean Streets; Vietnam 'copter blades swirling to The Doors' "The End" in Apocalypse Now; Public Enemy booming out the inner city soundtrack of Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing. From Bill Haley to gangsta rap, through Elvis, the Beatles and blaxploitation, cinema's affair with popular music has provided nearly 50 years' worth of movies and music stored up on celluloid, video, vinyl, and CD, giving us access to a collective jukebox of sounds and visions.


In Celluloid Jukebox, leading critics, filmmakers and musicians examine the state of the pop cinema past, present, and future. Biopics, British pop movies, blaxploitation and rap, underground movies, backstage moments, and the records that think they're movies--all come under scrutiny in a wide-ranging and provocative set of essays. Interviews with Quentin Tarantino, David Byrne, Penelope Spheeris, Ry Cooder, and Wim Wenders complete this essential study of popular music on film.


This is a good introduction to studying pop music & film. The breadth of topics is good and anyone interested in this subject will find valuable insights here. It recognizes that pop music has not always been used well in film and that there are many poor films dealing with pop music; those old Elvis movies aren't always so great, nor are many of the rock docs out there. But those early films were trying to figure out how to even use pop music or make movies about pop stars. They bumbled around a lot and made some blunders, but how else do you learn how to do it right? The later essays on rock documentary are really interesting and cool. And as another bonus there are loads of pictures in this book. Loads.


In excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Glued binding. A very fine unmarked, unsoiled copy.
