Such films as Salesman, Gimme Shelter, and Grey Gardens continue to generate intense debate about the ethics and aesthetics of the documentary form. In this in-depth study, Joe McElhaney offers a novel understanding of the historical relevance of Maysles. By closely focusing on Maysles's expressive use of his camera, particularly in relation to the filming of the human figure, this book situates Maysles's films within not only documentary film history but film history in general, arguing for their broad-ranging importance to both narrative film and documentary cinema. Complete with an engaging interview with Maysles and a detailed comparison of the variant releases of his documentary on the Beatles ( What's Happening: The Beatles in the U.S.A. and The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit ), this work is a pivotal study of a significant filmmaker. 410 0$aContemporary film directors. 606 $aMotion picture producers and directors 615 0$aMotion picture producers and directors. 676 $a791.4302/33092 700 $aMcElhaney$b Joe$f1957-$01806441 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962107903321 996 $aAlbert Maysles$94355621 997 $aUNINA
