Description

This timely volume explores the massively popular cinema of writer-director James Cameron. It places Cameron's films within the evolving generic traditions of science fiction, melodrama, and the cinema of spectacle. The book also considers Cameron's engagement with the aesthetic of visual effects and the 'now' technology of performance-capture which is arguably moving to a certain kind of event-movie cinema from photography to something more akin to painting.
