"This encyclopedia provides essays on nearly 200 films by 80 contributors from film and media studies programs worldwide… There is a little something here for all lovers of film. A chronological list and two A-Z lists itemize the films; entries are in English and in the language of origin… Each essay goes beyond the usual film criticism, delving into the historical, political, and social aspects of not only the film itself but also the times, places, and people involved with its making. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and above; general readers." -R. J. Powell, SUNY Cortland, in CHOIC
