The 1970s: seeking change -- 4. The 1980s: learning to survive -- 5. The 1990s, the 2000s and beyond: moving towards the unknown -- Conclusions: towards the new cinema of work and idleness.Contrary to the assumption that Western and Eastern European economies and cinemas were very different from each other, they actually had much in common. After the Second World War both the East and the West adopted a mixed system, containing elements of both socialism and capitalism, and from the 1980s on the whole of Europe, albeit at an uneven speed, followed the neoliberal agenda. This book examines how the economic systems of the East and West impacted labor by focusing on the representation of work in European cinema. Using a Marxist perspective, it compares the situation of workers in Western and Eastern Europe as represented in both auteurist and popular films, including those of Tony Richardson, Lindsay Anderson, Jean-Luc Godard, Andrzej Wajda, DušanMakavejev, Jerzy Skolimowski, the Dardenne Brothers, Ulrich Seidl and many others.Work in European cinema from the 1960s to the presentWork in motion picturesWorking class in motion picturesMotion picturesEuropeHistory20th centuryMotion picturesEuropeHistory21st centuryPerforming ArtsFilmHistory & CriticismWork in motion pictures.Working class in motion pictures.Motion picturesHistoryMotion picturesHistory791.4Mazierska Ewa978088UkMaJRUBOOK9910433238903321From self-fulfillment to survival of the fittest2564846UNINA
