Films of Woody Allen Critical Essays

In The Films of Woody Allen: Critical Essays, Charles L. P. Silet brings together two-dozen scholarly articles that address the core of Allen's work from a variety of cultural and theoretical perspectives. With a special emphasis on his films of the 1980s, this collection includes both general essays that examine various themes and issues encompassed in Allen's repertoire, as well as discussions that focus on one or two specific films. A number of the articles collected here were originally published in now hard to locate places, while others were selected from journals not usually associated with film studies. The result is an anthology of essays that presents an overview of the central issues raised by Allen's body of work as well as a close examination of fourteen individual films that convey these larger themes.Silet, Charles L. P. is the author of 'Films of Woody Allen Critical Essays', published 2006 under ISBN 9780810857360 and ISBN 0810857367.
