Daniel J. Bishop

Recenzje

In this engaging and imaginative study, Daniel Bishop approaches films and their mythic aura through seeing their music as a crucial frame for deeper interpretation. Bishop is to be congratulated on this bold and highly illuminating study, which engages and probes the complexities of historical representation in a number of key American films of the 1970s. The discussions are rich, revealing and lively, arguing most convincingly for music's primacy in the films' paradoxical and ambiguous sense of the past.
