Beskrivning
Following the centenary of Lindsay Anderson’s birth (1923-94), this edited collection of original essays re-examines the work of one of British cinema’s most iconoclastic and challenging directors. Building upon existing scholarship and authorial frameworks, the chapters included engage with a range of highly contemporary interpretive themes and approaches, including regionalism, reception, trauma, queer theory, genre, collaboration and gender representation. Addressing a number of methods and key themes which have arisen in the years following Anderson’s death, ReFocus: The Films of Lindsay Anderson offers a diverse exploration of his screen work from a contemporary critical perspective. The chapters provide fresh insights into some of the most significant texts in the history of British cinema, including films, concepts, and creative relationships that have shaped modern screen culture.

Recensioner i media

Anderson was famously cynical about the growth of academic Film Studies, but he might surely have relished this collection of in-depth scholarly essays: authors ranging widely in nationality as in age, from Scotland to Japan, from Sweden to Australia, testify to the freshness of his films and his legacy. An important book on a major figure in British cinema.
