Chinatown - Michael Eaton (BFI Film Classics)
Tax included.
'Chinatown' by Michael Eaton (BFI Film Classics Series, Bloomsbury paperback)
A compelling study of Polanski's reworking of noir which examined L.A.'s corrupt foundations. Eaton looks at the film in the context of the history of fictional detectives, its storytelling techniques and how it fits in with mid-70s pessimism.
