Trade Review

"[Nordford's] expert knowledge of Icelandic national cinema and world cinema is much in evidence here. . . . A detailed and wide-ranging study of Noi the Albino."

-- Christine Welsh * Scandinavian-Canadian Studies *

"A helpful, lucid account of both text and context. . . . The study is most illuminating when dealing with the aesthetics and recurrent images of the film: its use of colour, its place in a cinema that is concerned with Islands, and with maps."

-- Edward Gallafent * Viewfinder *
