Choice "This ambitious book offers a fresh, engaging perspective on distinctive transnational media developments in Western Europe over the last twenty ... Read moreyears. Halle recounts in detail how recent economic, political, and linguistic trends have substantially altered the practices of cinema production, distribution, and consumption. His analysis of the multifaceted globalized media emerging in Germany should interest scholars in media studies, political science, sociology, and cultural history, as well as German studies."

German Film after Germany fills a critical gap in film studies by expertly weaving together economic and aesthetic forces in its analysis."
