reviewed Screen dreams on September 09, 2014 Screen dreams
Of course I loved this book. How could I not?
In all honesty, I probably could have appreciated it more if I hadn't needed to read it so quickly (I'm writing about it for class). But it's a really excellent primer on the New Queer Cinema movement of the 1990s. It opens with B. Ruby Rich's essay "New Queer Cinema," which sets the stage and the players well, and then the rest of the essays are variations on that theme/responses to Rich's work. It's a device that may not have been intentional, but it works well.
I borrowed this book from the NYU library, but I hope to purchase it because it is a book I will probably refer to often throughout my graduate and professional career. It's an excellent introductory book to read if you have any interest in this subject.
