Description de l'ouvrage:
Hollywood has a long tradition of bringing in emigre directors from around the world, dating back to the silent era. Today, as the film industry is ever more global, the people who make blockbuster movies seemingly reflect this tradition, hailing from many countries across the world. But that fact hides a fundamental difference, one that Melis Behlil examines in Hollywood is Everywhere: today's Hollywood studios are themselves transnational, with ownership structures and financial arrangements that stretch far beyond the borders of the United States. Seen in that context, today's international directors are less analogous to the emigre talent of the past than to ordinary transnational employees of other major global corporations.

Revue de Presse:
"Hollywood Is Everywhere offers a scrupulously detailed sense of how transnational is Hollywood’s product and, more specifically, how characteristically international are its directors....Though the book concludes by referencing a political slogan—'Everywhere is resistance!'—the analysis of globalized cinema is descriptive throughout, not ideological."
