Abstract
The contexts in which this film trend has emerged include: (1) a generational one, filmmakers who want to recuperate the social mind of some 1970s Hollywood cinema, such as George Clooney or Steven Soderbergh; (2) the quality television series of the past two decades, mainly represented by HBO’s revisionism of classical film genres in The Sopranos or The Wire ; (3) transnational thematic concerns, collaborations and aesthetic influences; or (4) a cultural preoccupation with truth and veracity that has emerged in the growth of the documentary and socially committed literature. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
