| Description: |
"Night Mail" occupies an almost mythical place in the history of British cinema. This work provides an appreciation of this vivid, witty, and often eccentric masterpiece, uncovering the remarkable stories of civic-minded idealism, creative bitchiness and political trickery that underpin a classic of British documentary cinema. |
| Synopsis: |
This wide-ranging study traces the history of the documentary from the first Lumiere films to Michael Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11'. Chanan argues that documentary makes a vital contribution to the public sphere - where ideas are debated, opinion formed and those in authority are held to account. |
