Reviews
Accused as either "ramshackle" filmmaking or acclaimed for savvy "acuteness and prankishness," the under-appreciated "omnibus" film is rewardingly studied here by David Scott Diffrient. Described as a "meta-genre", Diffrient precisely and comprehensively discusses these films' rich history and their transauthorial dynamic aesthetics. By doing so, Omnibus Films: Theorizing Transauthorial Cinema situates the unique place in film history that these films hold.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

I was pleasantly surprised by how soon I received this textbook given that it shipped from outside the U.S. It was packaged well with no damage. The price was right. And I greatly appreciated the communication informing me where the book was shipping from and including a tracking number. Overall, a positive experience, - online shopping the way it should be. I've bought books from this seller several times now without any complaints and will surely buy from them again. Thanks a lot!

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
