"Location filmmaking evokes a wide range of contradictory meaningsfrom the roughness of the handheld action scene to the technical polish of the runaway production, from the specific rendering of place in the regional drama to the anonymous depiction of the generic modern city in the contemporary international production. Drawing on archival research and close readings of dozens of films, Hollywood on Location offers a new history of location filmmaking, doing full justice to this complexity. Carefully distinguishing Hollywood location work from various alternatives, such as Neorealism and the New Wave, the authors show how the economics, technology, aesthetics, and logistics of location filmmaking developed over the course of a centurybefore, during, and after the studio system." Patrick Keating, editor of Cinematography "Joshua Gleich and Lawrence Webb have edited an exemplary book of essays on Hollywood location filming. It is chronologically comprehensive in its covering the US film industry from the silent era to contemporary productions, as well as unfailingly astute and insightful. This is a book that all who are interested in US commercial film should read--scholars, students, and fans alike." Stanley Corkin, author of Starring New York: Filming the Grime and Glamour of the Long 1970s "This is a work that should be cited in any subsequent analysis of Hollywood location filmmaking and would be an appropriate assignment for any undergraduate or graduate classes on the subject." Journal of Popular Culture "The individual voices in Hollywood on Location come together to provide a consistent, succinct and enlightening history of location shooting."
