The Last Modernist: The Films of Theo Angelopoulos Hardcover - 1997

by Andrew Horton (Editor)


From the publisher

Theo Angelopoulos is widely regarded as one of the most distinctive contemporary filmmakers and a highly idiosyncratic film stylist.

First line

This collection of essays represents the first book in English to bring together an important diversity of critical voices focused on one of the world's most significant and distinctive film directors, Theo Angelopoulos.
