In The Films of Walter Hill: Another Time, Another Place, Brian
Brems explores how, as action emerged as a full-fledged genre of
cinema, Walter Hill established his position in the genre, first as
a screenwriter and then as a director. Hill, Brems argues, helped
merge the thematic and stylistic concerns of the Western and film
noir into a new action cinema, establishing a reputation for
mythic, highly-stylized storytelling driven by a relentless pace.
Through analyses of Hill's filmography, this book demonstrates his
consistent use of the architecture of classical storytelling to
help codify the language of the action movie. These observations
are supported by extensive conversations with Walter Hill and
several of his on-screen collaborators, including Lance Henriksen,
Sigourney Weaver, David Patrick Kelly, James Renmar, and William
Sadler. Ultimately, Brems positions Hill as a key American film
artist, whose work has inspired countless imitations.
