2014008103NY: Oxford University Press. First edition. Hard cover in dust jacket. Published NY: Oxford University Press 2014 first printing. 8vo. xiii296pp. illustrated. Robert Altman's Soundtracks considers Altman's celebrated innovative uses of music and sound in several of his most acclaimed and lesser-known works. In so doing these case studies serve as a window not only into Altman's considerable and varied output but also the changing film industry over nearly four decades from the heyday of the New Hollywood in the late 1960s through the "Indiewood" boom of the 1990s and its bust in the early 2000s. As its frame the book considers the continuing attractions of auteurism inside and outside of scholarly discourse by considering Altman's career in terms of the director's own self-promotion as a visionary and artist; the film industry's promotion of Altman the auteur; the emphasis on Altman's individual style including his use of music by the director critics scholars and within the industry; and the processes tensions and boundaries of collaboration.
