The Cinema of James Cameron: Bodies in Heroic Motion (Directors' Cuts)

This timely volume explores the massively popular cinema of writer-director James Cameron. It couches Cameron's films within the evolving generic traditions of science fiction, melodrama, and the cinema of spectacle. The book also considers Cameron's engagement with the aesthetic of visual effects and the 'now' technology of performance-capture which is arguably moving a certain kind of event-movie cinema from photography to something more akin to painting. This book is explicit in presenting Cameron as an authentic auteur, and each chapter is dedicated to a single film in his body of work, from The Terminator to Avatar. Space is also given to discussion of Strange Days as well as his short films and documentary works.

War films have existed since the birth of cinema, typically gung-ho tales of macho derring-do. But war films are not always about bravado and bravery, they also detail the horrors of war, the sadness, the brotherhood of soldiers, and the comedy that can be found in the bleakest of situations, as well as the excitement of the battlefield. This book explores defining films of the genre in sections covering different wars, as well as wars with other worlds. It also offers links between the different films, historical and cinematic worth, and profiles of key actors and directors. The films discussed include Saving Private Ryan, Dr. Strangelove, Welcome to Sarajevo, The Dam Busters, Gallipoli, The Deer Hunter, and Ran.
