1971 - 100 Films from Cinema's...

Robert Sellers

1971 was a great year for cinema.
Woody Allen, Robert Altman, Dario Argento, Ingmar Bergman, Stanley Kubrick, Sergio Leone, George Lucas, Sam Peckinpah, Roman Polanski, Nicolas Roeg and Steven Spielberg, among many others, were behind the camera, while the stars were also out in force. Warren Beatty, Marlon Brando, Michael Caine, Julie Christie, Sean Connery, Faye Dunaway, Clint Eastwood, Jane Fonda, Dustin Hoffman, Steve McQueen, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino and Vanessa Redgrave all featured in films released in 1971.
The remarkable artistic flowering that came from the 'New Hollywood' of the '70s was just beginning, while the old guard was fading away and the new guard was taking over. With a decline in box office attendances by the end of the '60s, along with a genuine inability to come up with a reliable barometer of box office success, studio heads gave unprecedented freedom to young filmmakers to lead the way.
Featuring interviews with cast and crew members, bestselling author Robert Sellers explores this landmark year in Hollywood and in Britain, when this new age was at its freshest, and where the transfer of power was felt most exhilaratingly.

Meta-Postal Expression

Kent Zimmerman

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. The Expressions are narrative events in a sequel of fictions and facts. In "emoji ride" e is the main character. By what provenance does "e" as a moji prevail and what does "little e crossing the con" signify? What's the ultimate strategy of "gopassgo?" How does still life move in "m black to blue?" What are the rules of expression? Do the "Meta-Postal Expressions" translate as "meta-speak?" As art, Meta-Postal Expressions mimic a fantasy creation. As literature, they seek to chronicle and expose the world in words from the inside out.
