Don't Look Now by Paul Newland

While postwar British cinema and the British new wave have received much scholarly attention, the misunderstood period of the 1970s has been comparatively ignored. This volume offers insight into the careers of important filmmakers and focuses on the genres of experimental film, horror, and rock and punk films.

'The essays in this highly stimulating collection reveal, clearly and persuasively, just how diverse, energetic and imaginative British cinematic creativity was during this rather maligned decade.. In shining a bright light into one of the remaining dark corners in British cinema history Don’t Look Now is a welcome and extremely valuable contribution to the field.'

-- Professor Duncan Petrie, University of York

'Long overdue for a closer look, this volume provides a comprehensive, wide-ranging and stimulating range of new scholarship on British cinema and television in the 1970s.'

-- Professor Sarah Street, University of Bristol

Paul Newland is a lecturer in film studies in the Department of Theatre, Film and Television at Aberystwyth University.
