Godfrey moves with skill between the landmarks of New Hollywood, plotting novel routes, excursions and detours in order to give us a masterly and compelling guide to the era's films. --Peter Stanfield author of Hoodlum Movies: Seriality and the Outlaw Biker Film Cycle, 1966-1972 The Limits of Auteurism is a completely new interpretation of the New Hollywood as a period and as an industrial/aesthetic phenomenon.
