'E. Dawn Hall's study of Kelly Reichardt, one of the greatest contemporary American independent directors, is most warmly welcome. Eminently readable and teachable, with a wealth of useful information on each film's production, distribution and reception, Hall's survey is sure to make you want to see and re-see, and to see more of, Reichardt's richly rewarding films.' Christine Holmlund, University of Tennessee-Knoxville Over her six-film career - which includes works such as Old Joy, Meek's Cutoff and Certain Women - the independent filmmaker Kelly Reichardt has established a highly individual perspective on questions of gender, feminism, socioeconomics and sexual orientation, set within an aesthetic framework that is guided by the low-budget techniques of 'slow cinema', minimalism and neorealism. In this close reading of her films and production methods, E. Dawn Hall defines Reichardt's auteur characteristics, arguing that she offers a contemporary and sustainable model for independent filmmakers in America. E. Dawn Hall is associate professor in the School of University Studies at Western Kentucky University.
