From the Back Cover:
Most filmmakers, especially in the United States, have chosen not to upset their audiences. But since World War II, an alternative cinema has emerged on a significant scale, particularly in Europe and Latin America- a cinema that challenges rather than soothes, that questions assumptions rather than reinforces them. This kind of film-'made in a spirit of resistance, rebellion and refusal'-is the focus of this important and stimulating study.
About the Author:
Robert Kolker has taught film studies for over thirty years. He is the author of several books on film. "A Cinema of Loneliness: Penn, Stone, Kubrick, Scorsese, Spielberg, Altman", published by Oxford University Press, is in its third edition. His book on European film, "The Altering Eye", is now on the World Wide Web at http: //otal.umd.edu/~rkolker/AlteringEye. He has recently published a "casebook" of criticism on Hitchcock's "Psycho", and a companion collection of new essays on Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey". He is editor of Oxford University Press's "Handbook of Film and Media Studies" and is currently writing a book on the films of Orson Welles and Stanley Kubrick.
