New Hollywood in Comics

Hollywood of the 1960s. Cinema in its traditional form ceases to satisfy the mass audience. Large-scale peplums and melodramas with sugary happy endings seem increasingly distant from the reality that is bubbling outside the walls of movie theaters. The former masters, who started during the silent film era, can no longer keep up with the impending changes. The rise of counterculture, the Vietnam War, political squabbles – all of this completely captivates the minds of the viewers. But there are young directors – such as Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola, and many others – and they have a great feel for the demands of society. One after another, they create masterpieces that will completely rewrite the history of world cinema. "Easy Rider," "Taxi Driver," "Rosemary's Baby," "The Last Picture Show" – hundreds of films over a few years will forever change the world of the industry. This period will be called the era of New Hollywood – a Hollywood in which major studios had to reckon with a new generation of filmmakers and their audiences. This incredible period is what "New Hollywood in Comics" tells about – a true encyclopedia of films, names, and events, after which you will look at the captivating world of cinema in a completely different way.
