Wiadomości z przesłaniem. The March of Time jako nowy typ amerykańskiej kroniki filmowej lat 30.

Journal Title: Przegląd Humanistyczny - Year 2016, Vol 60, Issue 1

Abstract

The author discusses The March of Time, this “idea film” series, as the new type of American newsreel, which emerged in the mid-1930s and went on theatrical release in the US and abroad. The March of Time was the Time company production; it derived from the radio programme of the same title. The series abandoned the newsreel formula based on the kaleidoscopic presentation of short news on current social, political and cultural events, heading for more in-depth monothematic editions, often on controversial issues. In great part The March of Time used reconstructed and staged scenes combined with authentic news records. This rather forgotten film series is better known today for its pastiche version News on the March, which Orson Welles put in the prologue of his Citizen Kane.<br/><br/>
