Description
This in-depth analysis of Frank Capra's films challenges conventional interpretations and reveals new insights into his work. Vito Zagarrio explores lesser-known early films, such as Ladies of Leisure (1930) and Forbidden (1932), to uncover the underlying despair that runs through many of Capra's movies.
By examining these overlooked works, Zagarrio sheds light on a more profound theme than previously acknowledged. His study offers a fresh perspective on Capra's oeuvre, one that is both nuanced and thought-provoking.
This book is a valuable contribution to film studies and literary nonfiction, providing a new understanding of Frank Capra's cinematic legacy.
