This Book analyzes the portrayal of colonialism in British, French, and American films from 1946 to 1959. The author examines how these films reflected and shaped public opinion on colonialism, using examples of both pro- and anti-colonial narratives. Specific attention is given to the depiction of colonial relationships, including those involving miscegenation. The study explores how film production and reception were influenced by historical events such as World War II and the Cold War. Ultimately, the book investigates the complex interplay between film, ideology, and the process of decolonization.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Empire-Films-Crisis-Colonialism-1946-1959/dp/1421416417?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=0da2bdc75598f5cb0f46d73603454c45&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
