Book Synopsis
Looks at the social and artistic forces behind this film auteur's personal cinema. Tracing Saura's career over three decades, this book discusses each work from "Hooligans" (1959), a film about a Madrid street-gang member trying to become a bullfighter, to "The Dark Night" (1989), a film dealing with the persecution of a religious reformer.

Trade Review
"In the first English-language auteur study of Spain's most important living film director, D'Lugo examines chronologically Saura's oeuvre in well-researched and cogently argued film-by-film analysis of [nearly] all the director's features."--Choice
