Reviews
“This volume represents a solid collection of essays that help the reader understand the complexities of Tim Burton and his work. … This book makes an important contribution to the growing body of Burton studies and is a welcome addition to the libraries of Burton scholars as well as fans who want to probe the work of this artist in greater depth.” (John W. Morehead, The Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, Vol. 27 (2), 2017)
"The volume covers Burton's work from 1984 to 2012, fully fleshing out both Burton the auteur and Burton the cultural phenomenon . . . The sheer number of approaches taken here assures that the book will engage fans, scholars, and cinephiles. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates; researchers and faculty; general readers." - CHOICE
"Tim Burton is a phenomenon of modern film, blending the humorous, the horrific, the macabre, and the magical with extraordinary skill. Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock's wide-ranging collection delves into Burton's career from Frankenweenie (1984) to Frankenweenie (2012), exploring the richness of his themes, the complexity of his allusions, and the nonstop inventiveness of his visual style. A treat for Burton's countless admirers, a welcoming introduction for newcomers." - David Sterritt, Professor of Film, Columbia University, USA, Chair, National Society of Film Critics
