John Boorman has written and directed more than 25 television and
feature films, including such classics as Deliverance, Point Blank,
Hope and Glory, and Excalibur. He has been nominated for five
Academy Awards, including twice for best Director (Deliverance and
Hope and Glory). In the first full-length critical study of the
director in more than two decades, author Brian Hoyle presents a
comprehensive examination of Boorman's career to date. The Cinema
of John Boorman offers a film-by-film appraisal of the director's
career, including his feature films and little-known works for
television. Drawing on unpublished archive material, Hoyle provides
a close reading of each of Boorman's films. Organized
chronologically, each chapter examines two or three films and links
them thematically. This study also describes Boorman's interest in
myths and quest narratives, as well as his relationship with
writers and literature. Making the case that Boorman is both an
auteur and a visionary, The Cinema of John Boorman will be of
interest not only to fans of the director's work but to film
scholars in general.
