Serving as a necessary corrective, Gabrielle Murray's This Wounded Cinema, This Wounded Life: Violence and Utopia in the Films of Sam Peckinpah offers a better understanding of the work of this landmark director through close readings of both his famous and less-famous works.||PlacinElectronic books.791.4302/33/092Murray Gabrielle972366MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455287103321This wounded cinema, this wounded life2211077UNINA
