Joe McElhaney is associate professor of film studies at Hunter College/City University of New York. He is the author of The Death of Classical Cinema: Hitchcock, Lang, Minnelli and Albert Maysles.
This anthology is as boldly unfashionable as it is timely. Academic interest in Minnelli's films has tended to fluctuate with the rise and fall of interest in specific genres, particularly the musical and the melodrama. This is a book that I will undoubtedly use a lot when teaching a history of cricital studies in the cinema.--Mike Walsh "Flinders University, South Australia"
