"A passionate and informed collection of essays that metes out tough love to the past and present of Scottish cinema. Scottish Cinema Now picks up on - and sometimes picks on - old arguments about the culture, industry and financing of Scottish film, and develops new ones. The new insights are refreshingly revisionist and break new ground in a number of areas: video art, international marketing, gender, kailyard, and the rhetoric and legacy of New Scottish Cinema. No-one who is teaching or studying Scottish film or culture can ignore this book. Nor should filmmakers or politicians, as it has quite a policy kick."Mark Cousins, Film Critic"Basically Scotish Cinema Now is a state of the cinematic nation book, a slim volume that brings together some of the best writers who have something to say about Scotish film and the strengths and weaknesses it possesses and why these strengths and weaknesses happen to be there"Tony Mckibbin
Cinema from Scotland has attained an unprecedented international profile in the decade or so since Shallow Grave (1995) and Trainspotting (1996) impinged on the consciousness of audiences and critics around the world. Scottish Cinema Now is the first collection of essays to examine in depth the new films and filmmakers that have emerged from Scotland over the last ten years. With contributions from both established names and new voices in British Cinema Studies, the volume combines detailed textual analysis with discussion of industrial issues, scholarship on new movies with historical investigation of unjustly forgotten figures and film from Scotland's cinematic past, and a focus on international as well as indigenous images of Scottishness. Responding to the ways in recent Scottish filmmaking has transformed the country's cinematic landscape, Scottish Cinema Now reexamines established critical agendas and sets new ones for the study of Scotland's relationship with the moving image in the twenty-first century.
