Scott MacDonald's The Garden in the Machine: A Field Guide to Independent Films About Place
Created by BaalMan.
Favorited 14 times, disliked 0 times, added to 8 watchlists.
"The Garden in the Machine explores the evocations of place, and particularly American place, that have become so central to the representational and narrative strategies of alternative and mainstream film and video. Scott MacDonald contextualizes his discussion with a wide-ranging and deeply informed analysis of the depiction of place in nineteenth- and twentieth-century literature, painting, and photography."
