- W4386974579 abstract "<italic>Hollywood Remakes of Iconic British Films: Class, Gender and Stardom</italic> is the first book-length study devoted to Hollywood remakes of British cinema. It investigates film remaking from the unique perspective of cross-cultural exchange between two countries which share a common language and history in film cooperation. How does this ‘special’ relationship affect both originals and remakes in terms of production as well as on a textual and paratextual level? Each chapter discusses classic and cult British films connected by the same star, genre and theme to trace the change from 1960s optimism to the despondency of the 1970s. As well as providing historical and cultural background, the book scrutinises how millennial remakes transform the previous class, gender and stardom dynamic to comply with industrial trends and to appeal to a twenty-first-century global audience. Are these Hollywood makeovers a simple face-lift, or perhaps an integral part of a continued cultural dialogue? Does the remake tend to pursue similar concerns or become a point of departure for something entirely new? This book proposes answers to these questions and more. Case studies span many genres and include <italic>Alfie</italic> (1966; 2004), <italic>Bedazzled</italic> (1967; 2000), <italic>The Italian Job</italic> (1969; 2003), <italic>Get Carter</italic> (1971; 2000), <italic>Sleuth</italic> (1972; 2007), <italic>The Wicker Man</italic> (1973; 2006), and <italic>The Limey</italic> (1999)." @default.
