The concepts and theories surrounding the aesthetic category of the
grotesque are explored in this book by pursuing their deployment in
the films of American auteurs Tim Burton, Terry Gilliam, the Coen
Brothers and David Lynch. The author argues that interpreting these
directors' films through the lens of the grotesque allows us to
situate both the auteurs and the films within a long history of the
grotesque in art and aesthetics. This cultural tradition
effectively subsumes the contribution of any artist or genre that
intersects it but also affords the artist or genre--the auteur and
the genre filmmaker--a pantheon and an abundance of images, themes,
and motifs, etc. through which he or she can subversively represent
the world and our place in it.
