About this book
Reviews
'Vincent Gaine's book is an object lesson in using philosophy to study cinema, persuasively arguing through close reading that the apparently disparate output of director Michael Mann is really a coherent body of film held together by existentialist themes.' - Jerry Goodenough, University of East Anglia, UK
'Gaine builds a sturdy academic thesis and occasional nuggets-on the doubling and mirroring in Heat and Manhunter for example- confirm his keen cinephile's eye...' - Jamie Russell, Total Film
