Abstract

The aim of the study is to investigate the footprints of culture industry on crisis themed films which produced after the global financial crisis of 2008 erupted first in the U.S.A. and later spread around the world. Examining a social phenomenon (industry and markets) with films (culture) is important because there are commonalities between these variables like mounting technique in the beginning and imaginary character in the present. Internet Movie Database (IMDB) named web site was used as data source to this study. Number of 47 films determined by keywords search in the database and ten films with highest ranking scores (gross revenue, public ratings, metascore, and moviemeter) from number of these 47 titles selected as research sample. Correlation analysis showed no relationship between these revenues and rankings variables. Content analysis conducted on the selected films according to hypotheses of the study. Classification of genres, joint producing companies, outsourcing services, rankings, budgeting and gross revenues are all giving tips about culture industry characteristic of the films. But, productions with critical and historical approaches are exception to these findings.
