For most of the 20th Century, the Western was a major American genre. The production of Westerns decreased in the 1960s and 1970s; by the 1980s, it was apparent that the genre occupied a less prominent position in popular culture. After an extended period as one of the most prolific Hollywood genres, the Western entered its ?afterlife?. What does it now mean for a Hollywood movie to be a Western, and how does this compare to the ways in which the genre has been understood at other points in its history? This book considers the conditions in which the Western has found itself since the 1980s, the latter-day associations that the genre has acquired and the strategies that more recent Westerns have developed in response to their changed context. Pete Falconer is a lecturer in Film at the University of Bristol, UK. He has published work on the forms and genres of popular cinema (particularly Westerns, but also horror movies and on other aspects of popular culture, including country music). 606 $aMotion pictures?History 606 $aFilm genres 606 $aUnited States?Study and teaching 606 $aFilm History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413070 606 $aGenre$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413110 606 $aAmerican Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411010 615 0$aMotion pictures?History. 615 0$aFilm genres. 615 0$aUnited States?Study and teaching. 615 14$aFilm History. 615 24$aGenre. 615 24$aAmerican Culture. 676 $a791.436278 700 $aFalconer$b Pete$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01228233 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484691703321 996 $aThe Afterlife of the Hollywood Western$92851385 997 $aUNINA
