“…[a] fascinating study…[that] makes a major contribution to a burgeoning field dedicated to the investigation of what was once dismissed.” · Monatshefte “...makes a significant and original contribution, is well researched as well as written, and would lend itself conveniently to the teaching of any of these films…[It] bring[s] to bear theories from Anglo-American film studies as well as German cultural studies and history. The result is a felicitous mixture of theory, cultural-historical context, and informed film readings.” · Jaimey Fisher, University of California, Davis
