    • 33 Mythen des Systems

      Ein radikaler Leitfaden durch die Welt und uns selbst

      Mit 33 Mythen des Systems legt der britische Autor Darren Allen eine Zivilisationskritik vor, die an die Wurzel der menschlichen Gemeinschaft geht. Denn diese, so meint Allen, hat schon vor 12.000 Jahren mit der neolithischen Revolution einen zerstörerischen Charakter angenommen. 33 Mythen des Systems stellt die Erfindungen des Kapitalismus und des Sozialismus, der Linken und der Rechten, des Theismus und des Atheismus auf den Prüfstand. Wenn man bereit ist, sich nicht nur der Welt da draußen zu stellen, sondern auch den Ängsten und Sehnsüchten im Inneren, wird 33 Mythen des Systems eine befreiende Lektüre sein.

    • Joel and Ethan Coen (b. 1954, 1957) started their careers in obscurity on a shoestring budget cajoled from family and friends in Minneapolis. Working entirely outside the studio system, the Coen brothers scored an unlikely first success in 1984 with their postmodern noir film Blood Simple. Two decades and nearly a dozen movies later, the Coens are now among the best-known writer/directors in Hollywood, turning out major studio releases featuring such stars as George Clooney, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Tom Hanks.The Coens' films all share a distinctive, quirky ambience that critics have come to identify as "that Coen brothers feeling." Tricky moving camera work, frequent use of the voiceover, homages to directors and cinematic genres, a fascination with unexpected and off-kilter violence, and omnipresent black humor are all defining elements of the Coens' cinematic world.From such highly stylized movies as Barton Fink and The Man Who Wasn't There to more mainstream but dark comedies such as Raising Arizona, Intolerable Cruelty, and O Brother, Where Art Thou?, the Coens are equally at home with existential despair and comic exuberance and are known for scripts packed with an obvious love for language. This collection of their most important interviews spans twenty years and is the most comprehensive published on the brothers.
