Hollywood's Hawaii is the first full-length study of the film industry's intense engagement with the Pacific region from 1898 to the present. Delia Malia Caparoso Konzett highlights films that mirror the cultural and political climate of the country over more than a century-from the era of U.S. imperialism on through Jim Crow racial segregation, the attack on Pearl Harbor and WWII, the civil rights movement, the contemporary articulation of consumer and leisure culture, as well as the buildup of the modern military industrial complex. Focusing on important cultural questions pertaining to race, nationhood, and war, Konzett offers a unique view of Hollywood film history produced about the national periphery for mainland U.S. audiences. Hollywood's Hawaii presents a history of cinema that examines Hawaii and the Pacific and its representations in film in the context of colonialism, war, Orientalism, occupation, military buildup, and entertainment. 410 0$aWar culture. 606 $aRace relations in motion pictures 606 $aMotion pictures$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMotion picture locations$zOceana 606 $aMotion picture locations$zHawaii 607 $aOceania$xIn motion pictures 607 $aHawaii$xIn motion pictures 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $asouth pacific, pacific, imperialism, us imperialism, capitalism, nationalism, white nationalism, cinema, colonialism, war, orientalism, occupation, military, entertainment, postwar, military culture, WW2, world war 2, WWII, hawaii, samoa. 615 0$aRace relations in motion pictures. 615 0$aMotion pictures$xHistory 615 0$aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aMotion picture locations 615 0$aMotion picture locations 676 $a791.4309961 700 $aKonzett$b Delia Malia Caparoso, $01237724 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792843003321 996 $aHollywood's Hawaii$93837853 997 $aUNINA
