The British musical film.
Author: Mundy, John Published: 2007 The first book to examine a neglected area of British cinema, as it developed from the 'silent' period to the present. It offers detailed survey of musical films across the decades, together with detailed critical analysis of selected films and the creative personnel who worked on them. Dance, alas, gets short shrift, but this is still essential reading for those interested in the development of the film musical. |
