Rezensionen

'This book is of crucial importance to film specialists. I cannot think that any film teacher/scholar would miss reading this work.' - Don Fredricksen, Cornell University '

Narration in the Fiction Film is an excellent study of issues in the analysis of narrative and a major contribution to work on analysing film narratives. His studies of particular films in this respect are exemplery and illuminating.' - Elizabeth Cowie, University of Kent
