Reviews
Accused as either "ramshackle" filmmaking or acclaimed for savvy "acuteness and prankishness," the under-appreciated "omnibus" film is rewardingly studied here by David Scott Diffrient. Described as a "meta-genre", Diffrient precisely and comprehensively discusses these films' rich history and their transauthorial dynamic aesthetics. By doing so, Omnibus Films: Theorizing Transauthorial Cinema situates the unique place in film history that these films hold.

Packaged with care and in good condition. It was a little dinged on the bottom of the spine, but not a big deal.
