Combining experimental, documentary, and narrative practices, these films were marked by a high level of abstraction reminiscent of high-modernist experiments in painting and photography. Moreover, interwar city symphonies presented a highly fragmented, oftentimes kaleidoscopic sense of modern life, and they organized their urban-industrial images through rhythmic and associative montage that evoke musical structures. In this comprehensive volume, contributors consider the full 80 film corpus, from 'Manhatta' and 'Berlin: Die Sinfonie der Grosstadt' to lesser-known cinematic explorations"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a City symphonies (Motion pictures) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh97007279 650 0 $a Cities and towns in motion pictures. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026189 650 0 $a Experimental films $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008103432 650 7 $a Cities and towns in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861867 650 7 $a City symphonies (Motion pictures) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862296 650 7 $a Experimental films. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918452 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 $a Jacobs, Steven, $d 1967- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr97022899 700 1 $a Kinik, Anthony, $d 1969- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010117000 700 1 $a Hielscher, Eva, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018147733 830 0 $a AFI film readers. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n86707212 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211031010.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=821B08001BE411EA82BF083097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
