Discuss the impact of widescreen on Hollywood cinema in the 1950s, illustrating your argument by reference to the ways in which at least two films employ these formats. Order Description Please watch the film 'Rebel without a cause' and choose one of the following. No Way Out (Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1950) The Man With the Golden Arm (Otto Preminger, 1955) A Face in the Crowd (Elia Kazan, 1957) Twelve Angry Men (Sidney Lumet, 1957) Imitation of Life (Douglas Sirk, 1959) Please discuss at least 2 films. Our focus here will primarily be the impact of these new techniques – including the rollout of colour photography, widescreen, 3-D, stereo and multitrack sound – on film style. It will be emphasised that changes in technologies of film production and exhibition can and should be understood as simultaneously technical, economic and aesthetic issues.
