Book Presentation:
Offers the first first book-length study of Mary Harron’s career and works
• Argues that Harron’s work has a distinguishing approach to stylistic and aesthetic choices prompted by cultural contexts, controversial subject matter and production limitations
• Explores her depiction of masculinity, patriarchy, feminism, and biopic genre
• Positions Harron’s filmmaking as a diverse, challenging body of work that is contextualized within contemporary industry practices

About the Author:
Kyle Barrett is a Lecturer and filmmaker in Screen and Media Studies at the University of Waikato, New Zealand.

Press Reviews:
This is a welcome addition to the growing body of work on women working within mainstream and/or indie film and television production, an area of creative practice too often overlooked. The editor has done well to source a range of cogent contributions providing good coverage of Mary Harron’s oeuvre, including in television.– Mary Harrod, University of Warwick
