Description
"This is the first sustained reading of all of Demme's films and places him in the tradition of classical Hollywood directors who raise entertainment to the level of art and who emphasize character and closure ('parabolas of action') against more open-ended radical avant-garde style."-John L. Simons, Colorado College "What Goes Around Comes Around is an interesting book with plenty of careful insight, though ultimately a testament to the difficulty of collating the works of an individual whose creative expressions are so diverse."-Film & History
