Hoberman, one of the foremost film critics writing todayĆ¹addresses the dynamic synergy of American politics and American popular culture during the Cold War's first decade. Heralded by a mushroom cloud over Hiroshima, the years between 1946 and 1956 brought an explosion of affluence and anxiety. Along with U.S. dominance over Europe and a new war in Asia came the birth of the civil rights movement and the first stirrings of a new youth culture. The period saw the movie industry purged of its political left at the same time as the ideological action hero John Wayne reached the peak of his career. Analyzing Hollywood's cavalry Westerns, apocalyptic sci-fi flicks, and biblical spectaculars, along with media events, congressional hearings and political campaigns, and drawing on FBI files and studio records, Hoberman has orchestrated a colorful, sometimes surreal pageant wherein Cecil B. DeMille rubs shoulders with Douglas MacArthur, atomic tests are shown on live TV, God talks on the radio, and Joe McCarthy is bracketed with Marilyn Monroe. Essential reading for film and history buffs, An Army of Phantoms expands on the analysis of the 1960's found in Hoberman's critically acclaimed The Dream Life and offers a lively and astute history of film that is also, to paraphrase Jean-Luc Godard, about the film of history. --Book Jacket. 000437148 588__ $$aDesciption based on print version record. 000437148 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$xPolitical aspects$$zUnited States. 000437148 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$zUnited States$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000437148 650_0 $$aCold War in motion pictures. 000437148 650_0 $$aCommunism and motion pictures$$zUnited States. 000437148 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHoberman, J.$$tArmy of phantoms.$$dNew York : New Press, 2011$$z9781595580054$$w(DLC) 2010049107$$w(OCoLC)505420495 000437148 8520_ $$bacq 000437148 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000437148 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=801018$$zOnline Access 000437148 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:437148$$pGLOBAL_SET 000437148 980__ $$aEBOOK 000437148 980__ $$aBIB 000437148 982__ $$aEbook 000437148 983__ $$aOnline
