Warren draws on his own personal responses to the films under discussion to demonstrate the point of the argument: that one cannot ignore one's subjective response to the influence of cinema. It is, in this way, a powerful statement on the nature of film and film spectatorship. - Daniel Varndell, author of Hollywood Remakes, Deleuze and the Grandfather Paradox Author InformationCharles Warren (1948–2021) was Senior Lecturer in the Film and Television Department at Boston University and Associate of the Visual and Environmental Studies Department at Harvard University.
