About This Item
Austin: University of Texas Press. Near Fine. 1998. 1st Edition (softcover issue). Softcover. [virtually as-new, with the faintest bit of handling wear only]. Trade PB (B&W photographs) In this book, the author "explains the rise of explicit violence in the American cinema, its social effects, and the relation of contemporary ultraviolence to the radical, humanistic filmmaking that Peckinpah practiced. [He] demonstrates Peckinpah's complex approach to screen violence and shows him as a serious artist whose work was tied to the social and political upheavals of the 1960s. [He] offers an unprecedented portrait of Peckinpah the filmmaker [based on] primary research materials -- Peckinpah's unpublished correspondence, scripts, production memos, and editing notes -- [and] provides a wealth of new information about the making of the films and Peckinpah's critical shaping of their content and violent imagery." .
