Offering a current and comprehensive analysis of Canadian cinema in its political and cultural contexts, this new edition of Film in Canada introduces students to a cinema that is as diverse as the country itself. Major developments in Canadian filmmaking are explored in depth, from direct cinema and the national-realist films of the 1960s to later avant-garde projects and beyond. With detailed discussions on recent and well-established works by prominent Canadian filmmakers, along with new film commentaries and movie stills, this text is an invaluable resource for film students and film lovers alike.
Jim Leach is professor and director of the Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture program in the Department of Communications, Popular Culture and Film at Brock University. His main research and teaching interests include Canadian and British cinema, film theory, and cultural theory. He is the author of numerous books, including Doctor Who (2009), Understanding Movies, now in its fourth edition (with Louis Giannetti, 2008), and British Film (2004).
