Sheldon Renan has written in this book the first comprehensive study of the American 'Underground Film,' an art form which is receiving great recognition at the present time, and which also is the subject of considerable controversy. The author covers in depth every aspect of this exciting new field of artistic expression : he discusses subject matter, elements of style and technique, and the ways that underground films are made; he gives a general history of the avant-garde film in America and provides detailed accounts of the careers and films of twenty-six of the most prominent film-makers; he tells about some of the stars of these films, analyzes the workings of the underground 'Establishment,' and ends his book with a look at the future of expanded cinema and computer films. In an invaluable appendix Mr. Renan lists the great majority of the films discussed in the book, giving specific data for each, together with the names of the distributors from which the may be rented for showings. Also included are nearly 100 photographs taken from the films and showing some of the film-makers
