The films of Oliver Stone

"The Films of Oliver Stone is a collection of essays on the work of one of Hollywood's most successful and controversial contemporary filmmakers. Stone's work has played a major role in the debate over whether Hollywood has promoted the decline of American culture during the last decade or merely reflected it." "The Films of Oliver Stone provides a more sophisticated, detailed, and probing analysis of Stone's career as a filmmaker than that available in the thousands of film reviews, personality profiles, and news items concerning Stone. The volume includes an interview with the filmmaker followed by fifteen essays by professors in departments of American studies, communication studies, English and American literature, and film and video studies."--Jacket.
