Description
Do you still trust what you’re sold by historical blockbusters? «Lzhefliks» shows what techniques the film industry uses to subtly steer your perception.
This is a practical guide to critical thinking grounded in facts for those who want to look behind the scenes of the production of “historical truth” on screen.
«Lzhefliks. The Industry of Manipulating Meanings» is a book that will make you view what you’ve watched—and your own conclusions—differently. Leave the idea “it’s just a movie”: every episode can be an element of a carefully designed structure where you’re gently fed profitable interpretations and familiar clichés. This is especially noticeable in stories about the past—screen history is easily made to fit the desired narrative. Thus, «How to Become a Tyrant» shapes the image of villains from a “proper” set of rulers; «Catherine the Great» turns the 18th-century empire into a picture of a backward outskirt; and «Oppenheimer» helps the viewer come to terms with the notion that the atomic bombing was inevitable and justified.
This book is not conspiracy theorizing. It’s a clear set of instructions for conducting critical analysis, supported by an impressive body of evidence. Ready to look behind the scenes and see the rules by which the factory of historical film illusions operates?
