From the Back Cover
"Offers the best review of the state of the study of cinema going I have ever read and . . . a mapping of how to think about a central problem of what it meant to live in the 20th century . . . . It examines not only the different meanings of all the different sites of film exhibition and distribution but also the authors bring a whole new context to how meanings are generated in the activity of film consumption. This is a marvelous book, wholly original, and will make a major contribution to the literature and understanding of film and television during the 20th century. Masterful!"-Douglas Gomery, author of Shared Pleasures: A History of Movie Presentation in the United States
