"Direct Cinema is the first comprehensive study of the seminal 'reactive observationalist ' movement of 1960s America. During a pivotal epoch in the history of American cultural expression, pioneers such as Robert Drew, D. A. Pennebaker and Frederick Wiseman used mobile cameras and synchronized sound to reveal the hidden side of their turbulent times - from behind-the-scenes footage of John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign in Primary (1960), through epic coverage of the legendary Woodstock festival (Woodstock, 1970), to the downtrodden and dispossessed subjects of Wiseman's 'reality fictions'. Outlining the methods and achievements of these filmmakers, who together created the notion of the 'fly on the wall' documentary, this volume suggests that direct cinema was not only closely attuned to the artistic and political revolutions of the 1960s, but also representative of a resurgence of the United States homegrown philosophical ideals."--BOOK JACKET.
