What is Being naked - playing dead : the art of Peter Greenaway about?

Peter Greenaway Has An International Reputation As One Of The Most Innovative, Stylish And Intelligent Of Contemporary Film-makers. His Eight Feature Films, From The Draughtsman's Contract To The Pillow Book, Have Variously, And Sometimes Simultaneously, Prompted Controversy, Infamy, Acclaim And Delight.

Each Film Is Discussed Within A Thematic Analysis Of The Full Range Of Greenaway's Output And The Wider Contexts Within Which It Is Conceived. In Conclusion There Are Two Extended Interviews, Making This Book Essential Reading For All Greenaway Enthusiasts. Alan Woods. Includes Bibliographical References And Index.
