Reviews

'Allan Cameron's delineation of four types of modular narrative (anachronic, forking paths, episodic and split-screen) presents an innovative perspective on contemporary filmmaking practices. In particular, his analyses of 21 Grams, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Memento are exemplary.' - Warren Buckland, Oxford Brookes University
