Book Presentation:
This study examines the early work of Fritz Lang, proposing readings of the entire output of one of cinema's foremost directors. It emphasizes Lang's reflection on modernity, and hones in on the problem of identity and subjectivity in a progressively more automated, impersonal world.
Press Reviews:
"It's a complex web Lang weaves and Gunning is a perceptive and concrete guide to its richness."--"Sight and Sound
