Description

"MacDonald's selections tread a pitch-perfect path between being comprehensive and making an engrossing and illuminating narrative. He has perfected his voice, and controls the entire history of U.S. avant-garde film with an easy and graceful confidence."--David E. James, author of The Most Typical Avant-Garde: History and Geography of Minor Cinemas in Los Angeles
