📗 Libro en inglés SPANISH CINEMA: THE AUTERIST TRADITION

Spanish Cinema offers lively readings by established writers on Spanish cinema of key films made by leading directors working in the art-movie or 'auteurist' tradition. It aims to strike a balance between representative films, directors and periods, ranging from 1952, the first screening of Bienvenido Mr Marshall to Almodovar, Bigas Luna, Juilo Medem and beyond. Each chapter concentrates on a single film, discussing it in accessible critical language that takes account both of the distinctiveness of film as an art form and of the material and socio-historical contexts in which each film was made.
