Reviews

`They are an interesting and stimulating series of choices. I like the way that the tendency towards focussing on expensive mega-epics is balanced by a romantic comedy. It is a good model for others to follow in this field... this is an interesting book for those wanting to explore the geopolitics of modern film productions.' Warwick Frost (2015): Heritage in the digital era: cinematic tourism and the activist cause, Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure and Events, DOI: 10.1080/19407963.2015.1043773 Article Link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/19407963.2015.1043773
