Even before the usual delays between theatrical release and further  distribution became ever shorter, movies often found themselves  downgraded to mere “content”, to be clicked at on colorful screen tiles.  Are all that remain to cinema its cult of celebrity, blockbusters, and  computer-animated visual effects?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Quite the contrary – even a cursory glance at our anthology reveals a cinema that is surprisingly \u003cstrong\u003ediverse, dynamic, and above all alive and kicking\u003c\/strong\u003e,  resulting in a decade that was anything but boring, monotonous, and  doomed to extinction. And in all honesty: Would you really be satisfied  watching all the films compiled here purely via streaming?

For Jürgen Müller and Philipp Bühler in their wide-ranging introduction, \u003cstrong\u003eQuentin Tarantino’s masterpiece \u003cem\u003eOnce Upon a Time... in Hollywood\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e  (2019) offers the perfect metaphor for the contradictions and  ambivalences of contemporary cinema.
