Description

Explore how cinema shaped political, cultural and ideological relationships between the United States, Britain and India during the colonial era. This scholarly work examines American films of the 1920s and their portrayal of whiteness and Western values, contrasting British ideals of democracy and social mobility against the backdrop of widespread racism. The book traces the profound influence of American cinema on Indian filmmakers who synthesised Hollywood conventions with indigenous artistic traditions to forge a distinctly Indian modernity. By analysing the transnational flow of films and ideas across three nations, this study reveals cinema as a powerful medium through which competing visions of modernisation, identity and national culture were negotiated and contested during a transformative historical period.
