Publisher's Synopsis

These 18 essays examine the relationships between narrative fiction films and documentary filmmaking, focusing on how each influenced the other and how the two were merged in diverse films and shows. Topics include the docudrama in early cinema, the industrial film as faux documentary, the fear evoked in 1950s science fiction films, the selling of ""reality"" in mockumentaries, and reality TV and documentary forms.
