Nothing Happens by Ivone Margulies
Through films that alternate between containment, order, and symmetry on the one hand, and obsession, explosiveness, and a lack of control on the other, Chantal Akerman has gained a reputation as one of the most significant filmmakers working today. This title presents the study of this influential avant-garde Belgian filmmaker.
“A fine writer and a skilled and gifted critic, Margulies offers many new insights into Akerman’s important workThe readings of Akerman’s films—in particular the contextualization of the work in a wider range of frameworks—are excellent. An impressive book.”—Judith Mayne, Ohio State University
“A significant and original contribution, not just to Akerman scholarship, but to film studies generally.”—David James, University of Southern California
