Covering 25

years of his directorial career,
Blake Edwards by Peter Lehman and

movement

William Luhr is

Elsaesser's penetrating study, New Ger¬
man Cinema. This scholarly work de¬
scribes in profuse detail the economic and

an in-depth analysis of the
ideological problems present in his films.
The authors pinpoint the ambivalence in

Edwards' characters and situations, and the
crucial aspects of love and sexuality that
form a continuing thread in his films (Ohio U.

Press, Athens, $29.95/14.95).

by George L. George

Polish director

Andrzej Wajda's
memoir, Double Vision: My Life in
Films, is a free-wheeling guide through the
various steps in his filmmaking, illustrating
with personal anecdotes and observations
the director's creative role in fusing separate
elements into an artistic entity (Holt, NYC,
$19.95).
Prof. Raymond Carney's contro¬
versial interpretation of Carl Dreyer's films,
Speaking the Language of Desire,
attempts to dispel the generally held view
that his films, as exemplified in Ordet, are
esoteric and demanding, while in reality
they present, as in The Passion of Joan of
Arc, an image of passionate human drama
(Cambridge U. Press, NYC, $39.50/14.95).
The nuts-&-bolts of directing,
rather than its esthetics, are discussed by 21
top professionals in Film Directors on
Directing. Interviews by John Andrew
Gallagher include Michael Cimino, John G.
Avildsen, Dennis Hopper and Susan Seidelman who discuss practicalities such as
financing, scheduling, cutting, handling pro¬
ducers, cameramen, cast and writers.
James Toback, Mark Rydell and Francois
Truffaut are among the few who express
views

on

the art of cinema

A definitive pictorial
cal record of films released

and statisti¬
during the
previous year, the 39th edition of John
Willis's popular yearbook, Screen World
1988, includes
1000 stills in

explored in Thomas

political factors that prompted

young film¬
makers to seek new sources of funding and
new cultural directions in their search for

contemporary forms of cinematic expres¬
sion

(Rutgers U. Press, New Brunswick, NJ
$50/14.95).
In Israeli Cinema, Ella Shoh-

at's expert

analysis of the country's film
production finds that it mirrors the contra¬
dictions and conflicts of Israeli society. Dis¬
cussing films from the ''heroic-nationalist"
features of early years to recent "Palestinian
wave" movies, many with a pro-Arab slant,
Shohat argues that Israel's East/West di¬
chotomy impels films to promote the coun¬
try's Western-oriented politics (U. of Texas
Press, Austin, $30/13.95).
A broad and lively survey of the
Irish presence in American films, Joseph M.
Curran's Hibernian Green on the Silver
Screen chronicles the numerous movies
that dramatize the struggle of Irish immi¬

grants and their assimilation into American

society (Greenwood, Westport, CT, $39.95).
The achievements of black ar¬
tists in film, television and the performing
arts are celebrated by Daniel Bogle in a

significant new yearbook, Black Arts An¬
nual 1987/88. It offers informed assess¬
ments of their work in a richly illustrated
survey of contemporary
tainment (Garland, NYC,

culture and enter¬
$35).
Compiled by Richard Skorman,
Off-Hollywood Movies lists 500 unusu¬
al films, foreign and domestic, that generally
play only in art houses, repertory theaters
and festivals; credits, cast, synopses and
cassette availability are indicated (Crown/
Harmony, NYC, $14.95). Over 2000 notable
non-English language features are assem¬
bled in The Holt Foreign Film Guide by
Ronald Bergan and Robin Karney; critical
appraisals, cast & credits are provided (Holt,
NYC, $39.95).
