Résumé:
Concerned with the connection between the built environment and the passage of time, ''Reframing Berlin'' uses film locations in the city to reveal the influence that urban transformation has on memory-making. Covering the city’s history since the beginning of cinema, the book proposes the term urban strategy to understand the range of consequential actions taken by politicians, developers, and other powerful figures to shape the nature and future of buildings, streets, and districts. Organizing these strategies from demolition to memorialization, the authors study the ways these actions forget or recall aspects of place. Using cinematic representations of Berlin as an audiovisual archive, the study details how the city has adjusted to its traumatic twentieth-century history through architectural transformations. Two dissimilar case studies frame each strategy, indicating that an approach that works for one building may not be sufficient for another.

Résumé:
Covering an array of films that ranges from early classics to contemporary star vehicles, this volume features detailed analyses of forty-six key scenes from productions shot on location across the city, as well as spotlight essays in which contributors with expertise in German studies, urban history, and film studies focus on issues central to understanding Berlin cinema. Among the topics discussed are the roles of rubble, construction sites, and music in films set and shot in Berlin, as well as key personalities, including Marlene Dietrich and Leni Riefenstahl. With the help of full-color illustrations that include film stills and contemporary location shots, World Film Locations: Berlin cinematically maps the city’s long twentieth century, taking readers behind the scenes and shedding new light on the connections between many favorite and possibly soon to be favorite films.

Résumé:
This publication focuses on a lecture given by Harun Farocki in March 1994 at the "Cine City: Film and Perceptions of Urban Space, 1895–1995" conference at the Getty Center for the History of Art and the Humanities in Los Angeles. Here, Farocki wove an associative web of thoughts on the relationship between film, architecture, material worlds, political economy, dwelling, sexuality, space, and time. Although an interest in buildings, spatial relationships, and power relations, as well as the interpenetration of technical media and urban space, was central to Farocki's practice, this is one of the few explicit explorations of the relationship between architecture and cinema. The (German and English) manuscripts of Farocki's lecture are supplemented by press material from the Getty Center's extensive film and lecture series. In their postface, the editors provide elements of interpretation and contextualization with regard to Farocki's previous and subsequent projects on spatiality and architecture.

Résumé:
Dark Places" explores the dim, claustrophobic interiors of haunted houses in horror movies, as well as the cinema auditorium itself, and their relation to the 'dark places' of the human pysche. Barry Curtis looks at the long, blood-soaked history of horror films: their fascination with re-animating the dead; the special effects, both sophisticated and crude, which have been contrived in order to bring spirits into the realm of the living; the structures, projections and architecture of horror movie sets; and the complex metaphorical life of 'ghosts' as harbingers of loss, amnesia, injustice and vengeance. A wide range of films is also discussed in which the 'haunted house' is reworked in new scenarios - the road, the apartment, the motel, the spaceship - and visually linked to the troubling archetypes of Gothic fictions. Barry Curtis is Emeritus Professor of Visual Culture at Middlesex University, Fellow of the London Consortium, and Visiting Tutor at the Royal College of Art. He has written widely on film, architecture, art and visual culture for magazines, newspapers and journals.
