In Nathaniel KOHNs "Pursuing Hollywood" werden Auto-/Ethnografie und interpretative Interaktion gemeinsam diskutiert mit postmoderner Zeichentheorie und den Machenschaften der Filmproduktion im "Hollywood-System".

En el libro "Pursuing Hollywood" de Nathaniel KOHN, la auto/etnografía y la interacción interpretativa se discuten junto con la teoría postmoderna del signo y las maquinaciones de hacer cine en el sistema Hollywood. En esta ensayo del libro de KOHN se entrelazan elementos auto/etnográficos de las experiencias personales del revisor al hacer cine independiente y hacer negocios en lo que el revisor se refiere como "Tierra de Los Ángeles". Si bien el libro está destinado a ser una mirada privilegiada sobre un mundo poco conocido de primera mano, el revisor ha tenido experiencias similares y lee el libro a partir de la identificación y aprovecha la oportunidad para contar su propia experiencia.... view less
