Immortal films : Casablanca and the afterlife of a Hollywood classic / by Klinger, Barbara,1951-author.(CARDINAL)865264;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction : the cultural biography of a film -- Listening to Casablanca : radio adaptations and sonic Hollywood -- Back in theaters : postwar repertory houses and cult cinema -- Everyday films : broadcast television, reruns, and canonizing old Hollywood -- Movie valentines : holiday cult and the romantic canon in VHS video culture -- Happy anniversaries : classic cinema on DVD/Blu-ray in the conglomerate age -- Epilogue : streaming Casablanca and afterthoughts -- Appendix one : Casablanca's first appearances on US platforms/formats -- Appendix two : Casablanca's physical format video rereleases"Casablanca is one of the most celebrated Hollywood films of all time, its iconic romance enshrined in collective memory across generations. Drawing from archival materials, industry trade journals, and cultural commentary, Barbara Klinger explores the history of Casablanca's circulation in the United States from the early 1940s to the present by examining its exhibition on platforms that include radio, repertory houses, television, and video. By resituating the film in the dynamically changing industrial, technological, media, and cultural circumstances that defined its journey over eight decades, Klinger challenges our understanding of its meaning and reputation as both a Hollywood classic and a cult film. Through this single-film study, Immortal Films proposes a new approach to the study of film history and aesthetics and, more broadly, to cinema itself as a medium in constant interface with other media as a necessary condition of its own public existence and endurance"--

Missing reels : a novel / by Nehme, Farran Smith.(CARDINAL)408754;
"New York in the late 1980s. Ceinwen Reilly has just moved from Yazoo City, Mississippi, and she's never going back, minimum wage job (vintage store salesgirl) and shabby apartment (Avenue C walkup) be damned. Who cares about earthly matters when Ceinwen can spend her days and her nights at the repertory houses--and most of the time that's left trying to look like Jean Harlow? One day, Ceinwen discovers that her downstairs neighbor may have--just possibly--starred in a forgotten silent film that hasn't been seen for ages. So naturally, it's time for a quest. She will track down the missing reels, she will impress her neighbor, and she will become a part of movie history: the archivist as inge. As she embarks on her grand mission, Ceinwen meets a somewhat bumbling, very charming 100% English math professor named Matthew, who is as rational as she is dreamy. Together, they will or will not discover the missing reels, will or will not fall in love, and will or will not encounter the obsessives that make up the New York silent film nut underworld. A novel as winning and energetic as the grand Hollywood films that inspired it, Missing Reels is an irresistible, alchemical mix of Nora Ephron and David Nicholls that will charm and delight"--
