"Higson and Maltby's work provides a much needed contribution to the limited scholarly work on film distribution history . . . 'Film Europe' and 'Film America' presents a major addition to film scholarship and, hopefully, will instigate further research in this area of cinema studies." (Scope: An Online Journal of Film Studies, 2001)"An interesting and useful anthology which focuses on various discourses surrounding the possibility of coordinated European efforts to offset the dominance of the American film industry in the 1920s … relevant not only for film historians, but also for those whose work centres on considerations of globalisation and cultural exchange more broadly." (Screening the Past, May 2000)"Usefully situates national developments, movements and cinematic expressions of local cultures in a broader international context, analysing the process of reciprocity, collaboration, exchange and resistance that animated the era on both sides of the Atlantic."
