Cinema '62

The Greatest Year at the Movies

Beschreibung

Most conventional film histories dismiss the early 1960s as a pallid era, a downtime between the heights of the classic studio system and the rise of New Hollywood. Cinemaâ 62 challenges these assumptions by making the bold claim that 1962 was a peak year for film, with a high standard of quality that has not been equalled since.
