Kenneth Anger
"This book allows you to examine each image more fully, to freeze the violently shifting and densely layered montages of imagery that typify Anger's films." The Times  "Underground filmmaker Kenneth Anger never got the credit he deserved, both for radical queer films such as Scorpio Rising and for his groundbreaking book Hollywood Babylon, which paved the way for our current obsession with the scandalous lives of the rich and famous" Tokion Magazine  "The full and double-page spreads from the colour saturated Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome (1954) are especially magnificent, while the mosaic of images from Scorpio Rising (1963) effectively captures a sense of the rapidly edited montage so central to the structure and experience of the film." The Film Journal  "An engagingly comprehensive look at one of cinema's most inscrutable icons... the films come alive thanks to this book's invigorating presentation" Orlando Weekly  "Anger has assisted the author with new stills and frame enlargements, revealing "secrets previously privy only to the filmmaker."
