poor critical analysis,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Romantic vs. Screwball Comedy: Charting the Difference (Studies in Film Genres) (Hardcover)
Highly repetitious and redundant, this would be better off as 15-30 page survey and review. If you're a aspiring writer pass on this, the authors poor organization of the material is not helpful in realizing a formula for the genre. The first chapter or two is useful but after that you will begin to feel as if the writer is writing for writing's sake (because he loves the genre) and not to impart knowledge. Interesting enough, I dont think the author ever negative criticizes any of the movies/scripts he reviews (i.e "fanyboy" mentality). He got an extra star for some interesting anecdotes.
