Multiplicity and multiplexing in today's cinemas: Diasporic cinema, art cinema, and mainstream cinema

ABSTRACT This article explores the resurgence of a new mainstream cinema, a new Hollywood cinema (or Bollywood cinema for that matter), which I'm calling multiplex cinema. In the current moment of post-diasporic and post-Internet globalization, which is driven by two seemingly contradictory movements in the world intersecting with each other, I apply the context of multiplex from the site of film exhibition to film texts. Of these two movements in the world, one (the post-diasporic) involves increasing physical displacement and dispersion of people across the globe, the other (the post-digital) is the increasing consolidation and digitization of media. The presence of large, displaced and globalized populations of both spectators and the producers of these works is important to the emergence of this global cinema, as well as these works' historical debt to accented cinema.
