520 $aUnderstanding Rainer Werner Fassbinder introduces scholars and students to the controversial and prolific but brief career of a filmmaker hailed as one of the New German Cinema's most talented exponents. Combining a chronological survey with a thematic exploration, Wallace Steadman Watson reviews the entirety of Fassbinder's artistic output, focusing specifically on fifteen of the filmmaker's thirty-eight feature-length works.
520 8 $aWatson's interpretations of these films, all of which he studied in Germany, scrutinize the financial constraints, material conditions, and script development involved in their production. In addition, Watson's analyses draw on a wide assortment of Fassbinder interviews - many of which are not available in English - and on theoretical and critical approaches employed in the Frankfurt School, gay and lesbian film theory, and studies of melodrama and camp.
520 8 $a. A comprehensive, balanced study, Understanding Rainer Werner Fassbinder also features an annotated bibliography, extensive notes, a filmography of Fassbinder's works, and a listing of films and television programs that examine Fassbinder and his achievements.
