The series continues this spring with a conversation between Page Views editor
Bruno Guaraná (Boston University) and Ross Melnick (University of California Santa Barbara) about his new book, Hollywood’s Embassies: How Movie Theaters Projected American Power Around the World (Columbia University Press, 2022). A truly global account, Hollywood’s Embassies offers a new understanding of Hollywood’s role in U.S. cultural diplomacy and shows how American-owned movie theaters promoted American values and consumer culture to their overseas audiences. Introduced by FQ editor-in-chief B. Ruby Rich.

Bruno Guaraná’s interview with Ross Melnick appears in the Spring 2022 issue of Film Quarterly (Volume 75, Number 3). It is available online at www.filmquarterly.org together with a PDF download of the introduction from “Hollywood’s Embassies,” courtesy of Columbia University Press.
