Synopsis

Part one of "Re-viewing Italian Americana" constitutes a look back at one of the two more popular fora of Italian Americana, especially part one, which rehearses a brief history of the representation of the Italian (read also, Italian American) in the United States film world. Part two offers some specific readings of what we might consider four distinct examples of more recent modes of production and/or interpretation. Films discussed in this section are: "The House I Live In"; "The Godfather"; "Golden Door" and three short films as example of an unsung genre.
