Review After Kie?lowski is an important contribution to the study of Krzysztof Kie?lowski, the prematurely deceased master of European cinemas, and of his legacy. The contributors of this excellent collection of essays explore both his Polish and internationally made films in view of the influence that his works, his philosophy, and his approach to film aesthetics have exerted on film production all over the world long after the director's death."--Janina Falkowska "professor of film studies at the University of Western Ontario, Canada " This distinguished book brings together an international group of scholars and critics to consider Kie?lowski's wide influence on contemporary world cinema. Each essay makes a distinctive contribution to this investigation, whether considering Kieslowski's legacy in the context of national cinemas, his effect on other directors such as Godard, Haneke, or Kiarostami, and his 'global' legacy-including surveys of his influence on such unexpected media as postmodern Hollywood narrative and American television."--James Morrison "associate professor of literature and film at Claremont McKenna College " About the Author Steven Woodward is associate professor of film and literature at Bishop's University, Canada.
