Abstract
- Ahmet Gürata's manuscript is a comprehensive archival work that sheds a light on Turkish cinema from the earlier period through to the productive years in the 1960s with a focus on cross-cultural interactions. Even though the films produced in this period had Turkish names, most of them were adaptations or remakes of Hollywood, Egyptian or Indian films. After analyzing the alterations of international films in distribution and exhibition in the first part of the book, Gürata shifts his focus to the remakes that were mostly produced in the 1960s.
