Reviews

'This resonant study couples the author's groundbreaking work on sound in Spanish film with sharp sensitivity to the social history of a country in transition. Vivid technical analyses show the marginalised protagonists and radical practices of the quinqui film tradition as thrilling some audiences and threatening others - as embodying the uncontainable.' Chris Perriam, author of Stars and Masculinities in Spanish Cinema -- .
