This is a sharp focused & brilliant survey of the innovative filmmaking of the 1960s. The 1960s was famously the decade of sex drugs & rock n roll. It was also a decade of revolution & counter-revolution of the Cuban missile crisis American intervention in Vietnam of economic booms & the beginning of consumerism (and the rebellion against it). It was a decade in which the avant-garde came out of the closet & into the street expressing itself on album covers & posters as much as in galleries. & it was a decade in which the old popular art
- crooners & show bands Hollywood musicals & melodramas
- seemed destined to be swept away by the tide of novelty emerging across the world. The cinema was central to this atmosphere of cultural ferment. Hollywood was in decline both artistically & commercially. The genres which had held audiences captive in the 1940s & 50s
- musicals Westerns melodramas
- were losing their appeal & their great practitioners were approaching retirement. The scene was therefore set for new cinemas to emerge to attract the young the discriminating the politically conscious & the sexually emancipated. The innovative features of the new cinemas were not the same everywhere. Common to most of them however were a political & aesthetic radicalism & a break with the traditions of studio filmmaking & its cult of perfect illusion. Making Waves" is a sharp focused & brilliant survey of the innovative filmmaking of the 1960s placing it in its political economic cultural & aesthetic context
- capturing the distinctiveness of a decade which was great for the cinema & for the world at large. Geoffrey Nowell-Smith pays particular attention to a handful of the most remarkable talents (Godard Antonioni Bunuel) that emerged during the period & helped to make it so special."
