Reviews
Barry Keith Grant provides an updated version of his own singularly authoritative study of documentarian Frederick Wiseman's astonishing range of films--from the controversial Titicutt Follies through such diverse examples as Meat, Missile, Model, Deaf, Blind, Public Housing , Ballet, and Belfast, Maine, to name a few. In his deeply informed study, Grant creates his own meticulous, yet accessible, "tapestry" of inquiry worthy of the same approach he credits Wiseman with adopting. Grant's insightful readings of Wiseman's carefully wrought compositions--and the happy accidents that sometimes occur--highlight colorful thematic threads woven to create the "reality fictions" Wiseman, in his own words, is producing. At the same time, Grant presents a capacious "mosaic," placing Wiseman's films in textured dialogue, not only with each other, but also with works of literature, art, theater, music, and dance, along with other films and Hollywood genres, that inform them. Grant explores Wiseman's penetrating vision of institutional operations--the human interactions that sustain them and the ideological underpinnings beneath the "rules" that govern them. As Grant compellingly claims, Wiseman avoids providing viewers with easy answers. Voyages of Discovery powerfully uncovers the ambiguities inviting viewers to democratically, actively, and reflexively assess their own participation in, contributions to, and complicity within the cultural conditions Frederick Wiseman so evocatively observes., This is the new edition we have been waiting for. Barry Keith Grant provides an essential companion to Frederick Wiseman, one of the most distinctive and prominent voices in US documentary. Voyages of Discovery offers perceptive and in-depth analyses of Wiseman's vast catalogue, ranging from the 1960s to his most recent work. Grant foregrounds the ways Wiseman's films have not only documented institutions but have challenged their established practices, encouraging audiences to meaningfully engage with and question the hierarchies and fraught political dynamics encountered in everyday life. This study matches the subtlety and resistance to reductive narratives found in Wiseman's own films, revealing why his work remains compelling and necessary viewing that continues to speak to the present day., The time is right for a second edition, and this year's 'revised and expanded' version rises to the occasion., Voyages of Discovery is one of the very best books of film analysis and scholarship that I've ever read. It is certainly the essential work about a major film-maker, whose films require special tools and sensitivities to discuss, which Grant possesses in abundance. This is a most useful work both for those just discovering Wiseman and those who think they know him. Great ideas abound on every page, and Grant's organization of the films is original and helpful. Exemplary as well are the carefully selected frame enlargements, which nicely support his close analysis of visual issues. Grant's ability to bring in relevant ideas from both film study and beyond it is the mark of an eminent scholar. That Grant discusses the entirety of Wiseman's prodigious output, in depth and entertainingly, is also quite an accomplishment., This revised edition of Voyages of Discovery is updated and expanded to cover Wiseman's prodigious output over the decades since the original appeared. Supplemented and supported by a range of secondary sources from diverse fields spanning film studies, sociology, art history, and political science (among so many others), Grant develops a portrait of a working filmmaker that is informed and definitive.

The Philosophy of Time Travel by Roberta Sparrow - the only thing consistent with the Donnie Darko movie is the title. This "book" is just someones unhinged faux-philosophical musings about the subject and NOT drawn from the movie at all. There are no references to portals, none of the drawings, and the fonts are mediocre at best. There are other books out there that DO HAVE actual references to the movie but this book is just a cover that looks like theone from the movie and thats all.
