This review is from: Peckinpah's Women: A Reappraisal of the Portrayal of Women in the Period Westerns of Sam Peckinpah (The Scarecrow Filmmakers Series) (Hardcover)
Peckinpah's Women: A Reappraisal Of The Portrayal Of Women In The Period Westerns Of Sam Peckinpah by successful screen writer Bill Mesce is a thoughtful, compelling, and insightful analysis of a famous Western filmmaker of whose career peaked in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Considered gory, violent, and misogynistic by some, Peckinpah's films are reappraised in Peckinpah's Women in order to better understand the multitude of conflicting factors that affected one man's silver screen stories and how he told them. Especially recommended reading for those with a strong interest in the history and future of western film studies in general, and the cinematic work of Sam Peckinpah in particular, Peckinpah's Women is a scholarly, critical book, and a welcome addition to personal, professional, and academic Film Studies reference collections.
