It focuses on how locales are scripted into film plots and artistically depicted, and demonstrates that place is as important as any character in a film, especially in this genre. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Nineteen key films are analyzed. Some, like \u003ci\u003eAguirre, the Wrath of God, Fitzcarraldo, The Other Conquest, Embrace of the Serpent\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Lost City of Z\u003c\/i\u003e are based on the exploits of real explorers. Others are fictional, including \u003ci\u003eApocalypto, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eDora and the Lost City of Gold\u003c\/i\u003e. The author also discusses the evolution of exploration-discovery films, including trends that will likely be found in forthcoming movies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-3999344\"\u003eRichard Francaviglia\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/30\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.92h x 6.93w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476692524\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476692521\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PER\"\u003ePerforming Arts\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PER004030\"\u003eFilm | History \u0026amp; Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS024000\"\u003eLatin America | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44567354638573,"sku":"9781476692524","price":108.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_fba570d2-3b91-4855-bd40-236aca806557.jpg?v=1701891187","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/cinematic-journeys-in-latin-america-geography-through-the-lens-of-exploration-and-discovery-films-9781476692524","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
