Rezensionen

"Stewart's collection highlights the significance of melodrama in film and TV and its ability to move its audiences not only emotionally but also politically. This book constitutes a thoughtful and eclectic contribution to the field." (Kristyn Gorton, Critical Studies in Television The International Journal of Television Studies, Vol. 12 (1), 2017)
