Book Description

May 11, 2006
Coined in the early 1990s to describe a burgeoning film movement, "New Queer Cinema" has turned the attention of film theorists, students, and audiences to the proliferation of intelligent, stylish, and daring work by lesbian and gay filmmakers within independent cinema and to the infiltration of "queer" images and themes into the mainstream. WHy did this tansition take place? Although htere are certainly other books on gay and lesbian issues in film, this is the first full-length study of recent developments in queer cinema, combining indispensable discussions of central issues with exciting new work by key writers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable, July 15, 2006
This review is from: New Thoughts on the Black Arts Movement (Paperback)
New Thoughts on the Black Arts Movement is a terrific treatment of one of the most influential literary phenomena of the late 20th century. The Introduction alone is worth the price of the book. Addressing both the weaknesses and strengths of the BAM in a balanced and truly revisionary fashion, this collection will make a mark. And it's a good read, too!
