Rezensionen
"The artist and historian Patti Gaal-Holmes' book takes this reductive characterisation to task and proposes an alternative reading of the decade. ... serves as a valuable overview of a broad and complex topic, and could be extracted by teachers for classroom use. ... Holmes' text is to be commended for paying sustained attention to some neglected works and directors, and for setting in motion an important political debate about the ways in which the history of experimental cinema is written." (Glyn Davis, BUFVC, Issue 102, March, 2016)

"Patti Gaal-Holmes's book offers a comprehensive, informative and readable survey of the creative innovations of experimental filmmakers working in Britain in the 1970s which places their work in key historical, political and socio-cultural contexts. What is particularly impressive here is the balance between Gaal-Holmes's passionate love of experimental film as an artist/filmmaker and her scholarly attention to detail." - Paul Newland,Aberystwyth University, UK
