Cinematic products in the twenty-first century increasingly emerge from, engage with, and are consumed in cross-cultural settings. While there have been a number of terms used to describe cinematic forms that do not bear allegiance to a single nation in terms of conceptualization, content, finance and/or viewership, this volume contends that "crossover cinema" is the most apt contemporary description for those aspects of contemporary cinema on which it focuses. This contention is provoked by an appreciation of the cross-cultural reality of our post-globalization twenty-first century world. This volume both outlines the history of usage of the term and grounds it theoretically in ways that emphasize the personal/poetic in addition to the political. Each of the three sections of the volume then considers crossover film from one of three perspectives: production, the texts themselves, and distribution and consumption.

This book explores the cultural politics of Pakistani crossover stardom in the Hindi film industry as a process of both assimilation and “Otherness”. Analysing the career profiles of three crossover performers – Ali Zafar, Fawad Khan, and Mahira Khan – as a relevant case study, it unites critical globalization studies with soft power theory in exploring the potential of popular culture in conflict resolution. The book studies the representation and reception of these celebrities, while discussing themes such as the meaning of being a Pakistani star in India, and the consequent identity politics that come into play. As the first comprehensive study of Pakistani crossover stardom, it captures intersections between political economy, cultural representation, and nationalist discourse, at the same time reflecting on larger questions of identity and belonging in an age of globalization. Crossover Stars in the Hindi Film Industry will be indispensable to researchers of film studies, media and cultural studies, popular culture and performance, peace and area studies, and South Asian studies. It will also be of interest to enthusiasts of Indian cinematic history.

Starting with the first "Western shadow plays" shown in the late 1890s, motion pictures have played a significant role in China's cultural existence for more than a century. Initially centered in Shanghai, Chinese cinema boomed in Hong Kong in the 1930s, aided by the advent of talkies and the influx of talent and investment from mainland China, Southeast Asia, and America. From the late 1940s, the territory supplanted Shanghai as the "Hollywood of China." In Hong Kong Cinema: A Cross-Cultural View, authors Law Kar and Frank Bren follow the story from Hong Kong's early silent, Chuang Tsi Tests His Wife, through the martial arts craze of the 1970s, to the medium's continued appeal to contemporary international audiences. Rather than provide a sweeping history, the authors focus on the impact of individual personalities, particularly local filmmakers and movie stars. They also consider Eastern and Western influences and examine major developments, including the changing role of women. By profiling key figures and events of the 20th century, this overview is the perfect introduction for anyone interested in Hong Kong's contribution to world cinema. Illustrated with photos.

Crossover Stardom: Popular Male Stars in American Cinema focuses on male music stars who have attempted to achieve film stardom. Crossover stardom can describe stars who cross from one medium to another. Although 'crossover' has become a popular term to describe many modern stars who appear in various mediums, crossover stardom has a long history, going back to the beginning of the cinema. Lobalzo Wright begins with Bing Crosby, a significant Hollywood star in the studio era; moving to Elvis Presley in the 1950s and 1960s, as the studio system collapsed; to Kris Kristofferson in the New Hollywood period of the 1970s; and ending with Will Smith and Justin Timberlake, in the contemporary era, when corporate conglomerates dominate Hollywood. Thus, the study not only explores music stardom (and music genres) in various eras, and masculinity within these periods, it also surveys the history of American cinema from industrial and cultural perspectives, from the 1930s to today.

I am introducing my new movie or tv characters crossing over existing television characters on tv or movies. I writing a plot summary or a synopsis about potential crossovers that could lead us off to a spin off or a movie franchise from my characters that I created to interact with my favorite shows to my potentials that I created for a few years. I been rejected by Hollywood for a long time because they don't take unsolicited material to writers. Unsolicited means no new guys, it's kind of tough to find an agent or a producer to cut you some slack since they don't take unsolicited material. I wrote my first book on twenty movie and tv show ideas and spin offs that you can't pitch to a television network or a movie studio. Because they don't take unsolicited material and so does an agency that will take it too. I watch a lot of tv, I read about fan fiction on the internet where TV shows crossover to other shows or movies. They all stink, but at least they can hear them out or see what happens. As for me, I found another way to get people to read about what happens if an existing tv series interact any of my characters that I created. So, I'm showing the world what would happen any of my characters on my movies that I create would meet an existing tv characters on a crossover. I would love to see people to get their opinion when they read this book and ask if they want my movie characters that I create come to life or want to see if it happens. If they don't I understand. But I want to get people's opinion if they want to see my movie characters come to life. Instead of tv or movie executives and agents reject me and tell me we don't take unsolicited material. My niece ever thinks about going into the business with me, I can tell her it's a long shot. Mostly the only way she go into the business if she knew the right people that can get her in. I wish I knew the right people that could got me in. I kind of wasted years on meeting the wrong people that didn't put my foot in the door. I writing this book for my niece Lakeh Chavala, if she ever wants to go into the business with me someday, that I will be her right person to get her foot in the door. That's the reason why I'm writing this book, because I want to show people how tough Hollywood is and maybe if we want to get our foot in the door, maybe this book could help them out. If they have an idea, instead of pitching it to a Movie or TV exec, we could write a book of our plot summaries or synopsis and get people's opinion to see if this book should be out in the big screen or tv. Their opinion and not the network. Same thing with publishing companies, they don't take unsolicited material too, but if you read on an independent publishing company called Trafford. They'll publish anything for you. I hope when you read this book, give me your opinion and tell me what you think this book should be out on the big screen or on tv.

Cinema from Scotland has attained an unprecedented international profile in the decade or so since Shallow Grave (1995) and Trainspotting (1996) impinged on the consciousness of audiences and critics around the world. Scottish Cinema Now is the first collection of essays to examine in depth the new films and filmmakers that have emerged from Scotland over the last ten years. With contributions from both established names and new voices in British Cinema Studies, the volume combines detailed textual analysis with discussion of industrial issues, scholarship on new movies with historical investigation of unjustly forgotten figures and film from Scotland’s cinematic past, and a focus on international as well as indigenous images of Scottishness. Responding to the ways in recent Scottish filmmaking has transformed the country’s cinematic landscape, Scottish Cinema Now reexamines established critical agendas and sets new ones for the study of Scotland’s relationship with the moving image in the twenty-first century.
