Sex, Class and Realism: British Cinema 1956-1963

Synopsis

Hugely impressive in its scope, with introductory chapters on social history, the film industry and theories of realism, this indispensable history of these vital years contains unusually fresh discussions of films justly regards as important, alongside those unjustly ignored. The extensive filmography which accompanies "Sex, Class and Realism" will also prove to be an invaluable reference source in the teaching of British cinema history.
