Hello everyone. Welcome to The Arabic Film Blog, a destination for in-depth and critical analysis of Arabic language films from the Middle East, Arabs and Arab-Americans in Hollywood, the depiction of Arabs in American film, and more.
This blog is a first attempt for me. My vision is to share my opinion and observations of trends, themes, and techniques in Arab film making along with news and events concerning Arabs in Hollywood. My hope is to help define Arab film making and figure out where it fits in global cinema.
At the moment, there are few, if any, film scholars who are doing any serious research into Middle Eastern cinema, despite the fact that many Arab nations have seen extensive growth in cinema production thanks to more available resources and a greater interest in the art.
While I will try and include as many relevant news stories as possible, this is by no means a news source but rather a place to find meaning and analysis behind current events in Arab film and how these things affect Arab cinema.
I can make no promises where this blog will go: it is many ways an experiment for me. But I hope you will join me in my quest to discover and learn about Arab cinema.
