How Movies Work

Editorial Reviews
George L . George, American Cinematographer
"Covers all aspects of the film medium in a highly readable, informative, and scholarly fashion."

Ernest Callenbach, Film Quarterly
"The stylistic and intellectual energy of this book are astonishing. . . . It maintains for 557 large-format pages a contagious enthusiasm for the art: for its structural strategies, its ideological power, its emotional effects, its endless ingenuity, its beauty and its mysterious grace."
