The most complete study of Blier's work to date, Harris traces the
director's career from the early 1960s until the present. Outlines
the forms, themes and style which dominate in Blier's work, and
challenges the many labels that have been used to describe both the
corpus of films and the man himself. Provides an original and
controversial discussion of Blier's alleged 'misogyny', and invites
the reader to understand the scatological and corporeal aspects of
Blier's filmmaking in terms of long-established traditions of
popular dramatic culture. Brings to light the comic mechanisms
underpinning Blier's films and identifies strategies which navigate
through one of the most entertaining and disconcerting bodies of
work of recent years. The first book on Blier published in English.
