It delves into the artistic works and personas of filmmakers and actors who embodied the gritty, authentic, and often rebellious spirit of this era, such as Dennis Hopper and Kris Kristofferson. Through examining films like 'The Last Picture Show' and 'The Last Movie', the book highlights the transformation of Hollywood into a space reflecting countercultural ideals. Stanfield connects this cinematic movement to broader cultural shifts, including the rise of figures like Bob Dylan, who transitioned from conventional upbringing to embodying a beatnik, bohemian ethos. This work is aimed at readers interested in film studies, American cultural history, and the impact of cultural icons who challenged mainstream norms.Generated by AI.Western filmsHistory and criticismGenerated by AICountercultureUnited StatesGenerated by AIWestern filmsHistory and criticismCountercultureStanfield Peter1504055MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911026071303321Dirty Real4433708UNINA
