Reviews

Uncanny Landscapes in 21st Century British Cinema: The Pestilence in the Ditch opens up whole new layers of discussion of British landscape cinema. From examining the poetry of John Clare and the enclosures, to considering the road racers in The Selfish Giant as the descendants of Goldsmith's village, this book looks at the films discussed in a totally fresh and expansive way.-- ""Clio Barnard, writer-director of The Selfish Giant""
