Description de l'ouvrage:
An invaluable reference and resource for scholars and film devotees alike, Frame by Frame III documents the contributions of Africans and African Americans in all aspects of the cinematic arts. Spanning a decade, from 1994 to 2004, the volume includes narrative descriptions and plot summaries, listings of black cast members, directors, executive producers, film composers, performers, producers, screenwriters, and Academy Award winners and nominees. The introduction, "The Shifting Landscape of Black Cinema," provides a scholarly assessment of the changing landscape in black world cinema, its growth, impact, and challenges.
