Connor
is
as
funny
as
he
is
smart,
and
he
knows
that
taking
the
business
of
movies
seriously
will
involve
some
ludicrous
scenarios.

pulling

curtain

This is a rare book that provides an entirely new way of thinking about Hollywood and the 'equation of pictures.' Eloquent and methodologically aware, JD Connor provides deft analysis of the internalized relation of film to money, excavating the economic image of movies and TV shows with killing insight. For anyone seeking yield in the study of media industries and the stories they tell, this book is worth serious investment.
WithHollywood Math and Aftermath, Connor establishes himself as the premier quantum economist of contemporary Hollywood. Bringing film and TV studios' financial logic into dialogue with Deleuzian theory and his own imaginative capital through a series of dexterous case studies spanning the past 50 years, Connor gives new meaning to creative accounting, yielding a profitable, balanced account of industry practices, corporate self-inscription and the politics of entertainment finance.
WithHollywood Math and Aftermath, J.D. Connor provides an original, provocative perspective on Conglomerate Hollywood's evolving practices and products. At once historical, philosophical, and industrial in scope, Connor creatively accounts for Hollywood's financial activities in a compelling set of case studies.
Deciding where the numbers end and art begins is a mug's game that writers have been trying to play with Hollywood almost since the birth of cinema itself. J. D. Connor's terrifically provocative new book should end this game for once and all.
