Book Presentation:
The first edited collection of critical essays on American filmmaker Richard Linklater
Analyses both Linklater’s celebrated and understudied work in dialogue with ongoing debates in film studies
Considers the impact of Linklater’s œuvre in industrial and cultural contexts, with a focus on gender, identity politics, American politics, and animal rights
Connects Linklater to relevant American political and cultural events and institutions
Richard Linklater is a popular American filmmaker who is widely celebrated for the breadth of his œuvre. Over the past three decades, Linklater has directed more than twenty features, ranging from non-linear independent films to Hollywood genre entertainment. Despite the popularity of Linklater’s rich and varied body of work—and perhaps also because of this generic diversity—he remains under-represented in critical and scholarly fora.
