Studying the British Crime Film
ISBN: 9781906733742 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ever since its inception, British cinema has been obsessed with crime and the criminal.

For a genre seemingly so important to the British cinematic character, there is little direct theoretical or historical work focused on it. The Britain of British cinema is often written about in terms of national history,...
