Lights, camera, history

"In the preface, the volume editors emphasize the importance of using film in teaching history: students will see historical films, and if they are not taught critical viewing, they will be inclined simply to accept what they see as fact. Authors of the individual chapters then explore the portrayal of history - and the uses of history - in specific films and film genres." "The cumulative effect is to increase the reader's understanding of the medium of film in portraying history and to stimulate the imagination as to how it can be and how it should not be used. Students and teachers of history and cinema will benefit deeply from this informative and thoughtful discussion."--BOOK JACKET.
