Bruno illustrates this 70-page comic book history of "The New Hollywood. From Easy Rider to Apocalypse Now."

A volume in "The Little BD-teque of Knowledge" series.

I can't read it, but it is fascinating to see BD stylist Bruno rendering iconic images of 1960s and 70s history and cinema: the Zapruder film, Roger Corman, Peckinpah, Altman, The Exorcist, The Searchers, Coppola, horror films, disaster movies, Scorsese, George Lucas....

From the publisher:

"The New Hollywood" chronicles the young politicized generation of filmmakers, and includes segments about the Vietnam War, the events of which stormed the inaccessible major Hollywood studios in the late 1960s. This comic book essay sheds light on this golden age and brings back the commonalities that link the works of Scorsese, Coppola, Altman, Peckinpah, Romero, Woody Allen and many others ...

De l'éditeur:

On appelle « New Hollywood » cette jeune génération politisée de réalisateurs, notamment par la guerre du Vietnam, qui a pris d'assaut à la fin des années 60 les inaccessibles grands studios d'Hollywood. Ce véritable essai en bande dessinée nous éclaire sur cet âge d'or et revient sur les points communs qui lient les oeuvres de Scorsese, Coppola, Altman, Peckinpah, Romero, Woody Allen et bien d'autres...
