Mild handling wear, book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Spine remains free of vertical creases. -- A study of Andrzej Munk's influential film Eroica, a seminal work in Polish cinema. The book delves into the historical and cultural context surrounding the film, examining its innovative techniques and thematic depth. Munk's Eroica is celebrated for its audacious portrayal of wartime experiences, its distinctive narrative structure, and its profound commentary on heroism and human resilience. Hendrykowski's analysis sheds light on the film's artistic significance and its impact on both Polish and international cinema. -- "Although more than fifty years have passed since its making, Andrzej Munk's Eroica has not ceased to fascinate researchers of Polish cinema. We continue to return to Eroica in spite of the fact that half a century of Polish history has taken its toll and the great majority of works to come out of the Polish Film School - with the exception of a few - today, well and truly belong to the past. This observation in no way concerns Munk's masterpiece, which with the passing of the years has retained its vitality and sense of deep reflection. Eroica continues to pass the test of unrelenting time both thanks to its manifest artistic values and its unusually open and bold concept of the artist's critical eye sustaining a dialogue with his country's social history." -- Contents: Acknowledgements; Filmography; Foreword; 1.
