Description de l'ouvrage :
Third Cinema, World Cinema and Marxism offers an analysis of Third Cinema and World Cinema from the perspective of Marxism. Its starting point is an observation that of all cinematic phenomena none is as intimately related to Marxism as Third Cinema, which decries neoliberalism, the capitalist system, and the Hollywood model of cinema as mere entertainment to make money. This is largely to do with the fact that both Marxism and Third Cinema are preoccupied with inequalities resulting from capital accumulation, of which colonialism is the most extreme manifestation. Third Cinema also defines cinematic modes in terms of representing interest of different classes, with First Cinema expressing imperialist, capitalist, bourgeois ideas, Second Cinema the aspirations of the middle stratum, the petit bourgeoisie and Third Cinema is a democratic, popular cinema.

Revue de Presse :
"[T]his elucidating book ... [highlights] the continued relevance and crucial importance of politically engaged film practices and scholarship in all their diversity." ―Film-Philosophy Journal

"Mazierska and Kristensen have put together a collection of bold, provocative and at times incendiary essays that challenge the alleged progressiveness of concepts such as world cinema and transnationalism by inviting Marxism back into the debate. The book succeeds in rescuing and reinvigorating the concept of Third Cinema by expanding it into other, hitherto unexplored avenues, and by opening its canon to overlooked works, past and present. In so doing, Third Cinema becomes Third Cinemas and World Cinema undergoes a fierce Marxist critique that puts its very relevance and validity to the test." ―Cecília Mello, Senior Lecturer in Film Studies and Film Editing, University of São Paulo, Brazil
