[Commlist] New Book: World Film Locations: Los Angeles, Volume 2

Sat Nov 09 12:15:56 GMT 2024





Intellect is pleased to share that /World Film Locations: Los Angeles, Volume 2 <https://www.intellectbooks.com/world-film-locations-los-angeles-1>/, edited by Gabriel Solomons, Jared Cowan and Fabrice Ziolkowski, is out in paperback.

With its meandering and beautifully fractured topography, Los Angeles continues to lure film-makers into its clutches, affording an endless panoply of locations to prop up both character and story. This second volume of /World Film Locations: Los Angeles/ expands the careful curation of the first volume to further reveal both the famed and hidden parts of a city in constant flux. Since the first volume’s publication, thousands of new productions have made the most of what the city has to offer, using, reusing and uncovering places that will surely become sites of pilgrimage in years to come. A guided tour of the City of Angels conducted by the likes of Robert Altman, Paul Thomas Anderson, Emerald Fennell and John Carpenter, this concise volume reveals how Los Angeles captured the imaginations of film-makers and audiences worldwide.
