Tra gli anni Trenta e il 1968, l'anno in cui tutto cambia, il cinema, sia in Italia che a Hollywood, non esita ad affrontare temi considerati tabù - l'adulterio, il sesso, l'omosessualità - con uno sguardo disincantato e provocatorio.

More than 60,000 books have been published on the Civil War. Most Americans, though, get their ideas about the war why it was fought, what was won, what was lost not from books but from movies, television, and other popular media. In an engaging and accessible survey, Gallagher guides listeners through the stories told in recent film and art, showing how they have both reflected and influenced the political, social, and racial currents of their times.
