Open LibraryAbout this book
Prolific director Howard Hawks made films in nearly every genre, from gengster movies like Scarface to comedies like Bringing Up Baby and Monkey Business and westerns like Rio Bravo. In this new edition of a classic text, author Robin Wood explores the ways in which Hawks pushed the boundaries of each genre and transformed the traditional forms in new, interesting, and creative ways. This edition also contains an exciting new introduction by Wood, which shows how his thinking about Hawks has deepened over time without fundamentally changing. --Book Jacket
