Transnational cinema

The other name for this is Treason cinema.  This is really scary stuff.---rng

News flashes from the propaganda front: Todays topic-Transnational cinema. This goes along way in explaining the pro-world, anti-american feel we see in our films lately. So when you read the paltry number of negative articles on outsourcing and the corresponding outsized pro-outsourcing articles touting how great India and China are doing courtesy of outsourcing american companies, this is one place to look.   ------lee

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
     Transnational cinema is a developing concept within film studies that encompasses a range of theories relating to the effects of globalization upon the cultural and economic aspects of film. It incorporates the debates and influences of postnationalism, postcolonialism, consumerism and Third cinema[1], amongst many other topics.
     Transnational cinema debates consider the development and subsequent effect of films, cinemas and auteurs which supersede national boundaries in becoming cultural products and representations.
