Reviews

Teen Film: A Critical Introduction breaks new and vital ground. Moving away from the America-centric bias of previous studies, it shows that the protean, complex, ever-changing image of youth on screen belongs to everyone, everywhere, no matter their age, gender, race or culture. A major achievement in film studies. * Adrian Martin, Monash University *
