The Apartment Complex Urban Living and Global Screen Cultures

"[The Apartment Complex is] a concise, remarkably wide-ranging book on an unusual topic. ... Stark and satisfying. ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals; general readers." - W. W. Dixon (Choice) "The Apartment Complex builds upon the premise of Wojcik's earlier book that wedded cinema studies to urban studies. . . Its strength lies in how the individual essayists apply Wojcik's thesis- developed for post-World War II American films- to the more recent output of international films and television." - Carrie Rickey (Film Quarterly) "Wojcik has produced a book unrestricted by the limits of genre, history, nation, or industry figure, and illuminates important visual and thematic connections between films in global screen culture." - Anna Maria Sapountzi (Open Screens)
