Reviews

Knoblauch’s book carves out a timely path for the creation of new theoretical frameworks to celebrate audio-visual practitioners at a moment when critiques of traditional, male-dominated auteurism are becoming increasingly mainstream, and concepts such as feminist cinema and the female gaze are gaining ever-greater currency. Coupled with the fragmentation of a ‘post-cinematic’ production landscape in the streaming era, the need for a ‘post-auteurist’ lens is urgently established and its possible contours lucidly sketched in these pages, which nimbly avoid downplaying the project’s complexities. Building a Feminocentric Canon stakes a claim to being a significant reference point not so much for aficionados of Sciamma, its emblematic example, as for the broader and expanding field of feminist film and television authorship studies, and beyond. * Mary Harrod, Professor of French and Screen Studies, University of Warwick, UK *
