Ernst Lubitsch's The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg: The Art of Classical Hollywood

John W. Fawell

4.9/5 (20054 ratings)

Description:This book takes a close look at a film that has heretofore been significantly undervalued by film scholars: Ernst Lubitsch's The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg. In so doing it advocates not only for the elevation of the film within the canon of Lubitsch's films, but also for an appreciation of the certain kind of filmmaking which it represents--one favored in the classical era of Hollywood that is characterized by aesthetics, meticulous structure, and delicate understatement over explicit content or social relevance. This book argues that The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg has perhaps been neglected because of the tendency in contemporary film criticism to devalue films that are not overtly "serious" in their subject matter. Attention to the careful artistry of the film reveals that it is a great deal more sophisticated in its craft than many films that have been famed for their weightier subject matter. The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg represents a master class in classical Hollywood technique, a kind of filmmaking that is characterized by charm, beauty, and elegant form and which chooses not express its ideas explicitly but to encase them in the substance, structure, and very experience of the film.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
