The History of Cinema

In the new book by Vasily Gorchakov, the complete history of the western genre over the last 60 years is presented, starting from the 1960s to films of the modern era. The book contains about 1000 annotated titles of films made in America, Europe, and other countries. "The genre is alive. Films continue to be made, not only in the USA and Italy. Other countries are eager to contribute, to revive the genre, to improve it, to make it keep up with the times. This leads to unexpected and previously unseen symbioses with other genres – horror, psychological thriller, science fiction. Sometimes it works better, sometimes worse – but there is movement, search, life… We all eagerly await the release of Martin Scorsese's film 'Killers of the Flower Moon' featuring DiCaprio and De Niro, which has been delayed due to coronavirus. And not only that – in the USA alone, twelve westerns will be made in 2021!" Vasily Gorchakov
