Gopalan assembles films from Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Trivandrum, in addition to independent productions in Bombay cinema, as a way of privileging understudied works that deserve critical attention. The book uses close readings of films and a deep investigation of film style to draw attention to the advent of digital technologies while remaining fully cognizant of 'the digital' as a cryptic formulation for considering the sea change in the global circulation of film and finance. This dual focus on both the techno-material conditions of Indian cinema and the film narrative offers a fulsome picture of changing narratives and shifting genres and styles. 606 $aMotion pictures$zAsia 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aCommunication 606 $aAsian Film and TV 606 $aFilm Theory 606 $aCultural Studies 606 $aMedia and Communication 606 $aCultural Theory 615 0$aMotion pictures 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 14$aAsian Film and TV. 615 24$aFilm Theory. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 676 $a791.430954 676 $a791.430954 700 $aGopalan$b Lalitha$01227642 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483339103321 996 $aCinemas dark and slow in digital india$92850354 997 $aUNINA
