- Title
The French Blockbuster Beyond the Martial Arts Genre.
- Authors
Goldberger, Jennifer
- Abstract
The article discusses the argument that the non-martial arts French blockbusters are reconciling the forms of Hollywood blockbuster with traditional French to maintain national specificity. It says that the insertion of French personalities into the genre of Hollywood is suggesting that France have found the formula for the combination of two cultural trends. It adds that French blockbusters are appropriating the digital post-production effects of Hollywood to appeal to audiences.
