It helps determine filmmakers' artistic decisions, Hollywood's corporate structure, and the varieties of media consumption. The rise of digital media and the internet has only expanded copyright's reach. Everyone from producers and screenwriters to amateur video makers, file sharers, and internet entrepreneurs has a stake in the history and future of piracy, copy protection, and the public domain. Beginning with Thomas Edison's aggressive copyright disputes and concluding with recent lawsuits against YouTube, this book follows the struggle of the film, television, and digital media industries to influence and adapt to copyright law. Many of Hollywood's most valued treasures, from Modern Times (1936) to Star Wars (1977), cannot be fully understood without appreciating their legal controversies. The author shows that the history of intellectual property in Hollywood has not always mirrored the evolution of the law. Many landmark decisions have barely changed the industry's behavior, while some quieter policies have had revolutionary effects. His most remarkable contributions uncover Hollywood's reliance on self-regulation. Rather than involve Congress, judges, or juries in settling copyright disputes, studio heads and filmmakers have often kept such arguments 'in house', turning to talent guilds and other groups for solutions. Whether the issue has been battling piracy in the 1900s, controlling the threat of home video, or managing modern amateur and noncommercial uses of protected content, much of Hollywood's engagement with the law has occurred offstage, in the larger theater of copyright. This history recounts these extralegal solutions and their impact on American media and culture. -- Publisher description. 000027078 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zAmerica. 000027078 650_0 $$aBroadcasting rights$$zAmerica. 000027078 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zUnited States. 000027078 650_0 $$aIntellectual property$$zUnited States. 000027078 650_0 $$aFair use (Copyright)$$zUnited States. 000027078 650_6 $$aDroit d'auteur$$xCinéma$$zÉtats-Unis$$xHistoire. 000027078 651_0 $$aAmerica$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027078 7102_ $$aColumbia University Press,. 000027078 830_0 $$aFilm and culture. 000027078 942__ $$cMON$$jN 634 DEC.H 000027078 952__ $$w2013-04-12$$p2013-0132$$r34.50$$u41557$$bMAIN$$10$$kN 634 DEC.H$$v2013-04-12$$zTagged$$71 000027078 980__ $$aBIB 000027078 999__ $$c29482$$d29482
