Recenzii

'Vincent Gaine's book is an object lesson in using philosophy to study cinema, persuasively arguing through close reading that the apparently disparate output of director Michael Mann is really a coherent body of film held together by existentialist themes.' - Jerry Goodenough, University of East Anglia, UK
'Gaine builds a sturdy academic thesis and occasional nuggets-on the doubling and mirroring in Heat and Manhunter for example- confirm his keen cinephile's eye...' - Jamie Russell, Total Film
