This traditional auteurist survey closely examines the films of
director John Frankenheimer, assessing the thematic and stylistic
elements of such films as ""The Iceman Cometh"", ""The Manchurian
Candidate"", and ""The Bird Man of Alcatraz"". It begins with a
complete overview of Frankenheimer's life and career. A chronology
lists production history details for each of his films, and a
comprehensive biography draws attention to Frankenheimer's early
artistic development. Subsequent chapters categorize his films by
genre and theme, examining each film through analytical critiques
and plot synopses. Multiple appendices include an analysis of
Frankenheimer's short films ""Maniac at Large"" and ""Ambush"", a
complete filmography, and a suggested reading list.
