Reviews

"Daniel Goulding's revised and updated Liberated Cinema: The Yugoslav Experience, 1945-2001 is an extremely rewarding and informative read. The book is one which should form a compulsory accompaniment to any East European Cinema course, and is well worth reading for anyone with even a broad interest in the former Yugoslavia. Goulding provides the reader with enough political and cultural background to that no previous knowledge of the country is necessary to understand the context of the films themselves and of the industry that produced them... Liberated Cinema is a pleasure to read ... tracing the historical narrative of the industry and specific films. Above all, the book is to be praised for the large number of films it covers ..."--Milena Michalski, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London, SEER, 82/2 2004
