Reviews
'Isaacs opens a path to a theory that is rigorous about, and respectful of, the film.' Parallax, 2009, "Isaacs (Univ. of Sydney) contends that post modern narrative cinema no longer conforms to the hierarchical gradations of high art, mediocre art, and trash...This is a valuable, thought-provoking attempt to aestheticize the deployment of prior cinematic representations. Summing up: Recommended." -J.C. Tibbetts, CHOICE, December 2008, Unfortunately, despite his avowed intention to make film theory meaningful for contemporary viewers ("Film theory should be for people other than theorists"), Isaacs deploys abstruse jargon, problematic arguments, and frequent allusions to theorists such as Baudrillard, Lyotard, Eco, et. Al., thus putting the book out of reach of undergraduates. -J.C. Tibbetts, CHOICE, December 2008
