In Modernity at the Movies, Camila Gatica Mizala explores the ideas of reflection versus escapism and examines how modes of understanding the current moment emerged through the practice of going to the movies in Santiago and Buenos Aires between 1915 and 1945. Using cinema and variety magazines published in both cities, she analyzes the technology, architecture, attendance, behavior, language, censorship, and overall experience of cinema-going. These publications regularly engaged with important topics such as morality and urbanization and helped build a cinematographic audience. Gatica Mizala brings together the perception and reception of cinema as a modern art form, shifting the focus from the production of films to the experience of the audience when viewing them. By focusing on the audience instead of the films, this study is able to articulate the ways that cinema, as a modern activity, was incorporated into everyday life and discuss what it meant to be modern in early to midcentury Latin America"-- $c Amazon. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 217-240) and index. 505 00 $g Conclusion. $t Cervante's beautiful language : intertitles, subtitles, and dubbing -- $t Everyone goes to the movies : ticket prices and types of audiences -- $t Building the modern citizen : censorship as cinema's civilizing action -- $t "Between the indecisive and pale light" -- $t Cervante's beautiful language : intertitles, subtitles, and dubbing -- $g Conclusion. 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Motion picture audiences $z Buenos Aires $z Buenos Aires $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Motion picture audiences $z Santiago $z Santiago $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $x Social aspects $z Buenos Aires. $z Buenos Aires. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $x Social aspects $z Santiago. $z Santiago. 650 0 $a History. 650 7 $a Motion picture audiences $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027116 651 7 $a Argentina $z Buenos Aires $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205786 651 7 $a Chile $z Santiago $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205760 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Illuminations (Pittsburgh, Pa.) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014200.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4AF9FF3E851711EEB4A9908744ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
