Description de l'ouvrage :
The Bloomsbury Handbook to Sofia Coppola offers the first comprehensive overview of the director's impressive oeuvre. It includes individual chapters on her films, including The Virgin Suicides (1999), Lost in Translation (2003), Marie Antoinette (2006), Somewhere (2010), The Bling Ring (2013), The Beguiled (2017), and On the Rocks (2020).
While focused on her films, contributors also consider Coppola's shorter works for television, commercials and music videos, as well as explorations of the distinct elements of her signature style: cinematography, production/costume design, music, and editing. Additional chapters provide insights into the influences on her work, its popular and scholarly reception, and interpretations of key themes and issues.
The international team of contributors includes leading scholars of film, music, fashion, celebrity and gender studies, visual and material culture, reception studies, as well as industry professionals. Their interdisciplinary insights capture the complexities of Coppola's work and its cultural significance.

Revue de Presse :
"This Handbook provides the most significant work to date on Sofia Coppola compiled in a single volume, and focuses on a wide range of topics, some of which have received little scholarly attention to date. In time to come it will surely establish itself as a touchstone text." ―Joel Gwynne, National Institute of Education, Singapore
"The Bloomsbury Handbook to Sofia Coppola should have one word added to its title: it is undoubtedly the essential handbook to the filmmaker and cultural icon at its center. The essays included here are not only informative introductions but compelling, thought-provoking, and sometimes surprising re-evaluations of one of the most interesting celebrity artists in the contemporary media scene." ―Mallory Young, Tarleton State University, USA
