Global Hollywood, Global Audiences

On Friday, July 14, 2023, the HOLLYWOOD MEMORIES Research Group will host the workshop “Global Hollywood, Global Audiences.” The workshop is designed to discuss the global impact of Hollywood cinema and its importance to global audiences. It will bring together scholars of historical and contemporary audiences, memories of moviegoing, and home movies in local, national, and global contexts. A central goal is to think critically about how to examine the global influence of Hollywood cinema in the study of global audiences. We would also like to look at recent thinking on cultural imperialism, as well as issues of representation and national identities. Another goal of the workshop is to reflect on audience research methods and critically discuss the work of data analysis and the presentation of research results.
