From the late 1960s to the early 1980s, Laura Mulvey and Peter Wollen produced some of the most influential writings in film theory, such as Mulvey’s Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema and Wollen’s The Two Avant-Gardes . In the same period, the pair made six films together. Laura Mulvey and Peter Wollen: Towards Counter-Cinema is the first book-length study of their work. Moving across Mulvey and Wollen’s writings and films, it situates their work in a detailed account of the shifting conjunctures in which it was generated. Traversing psychoanalysis, feminism, Marxism and semiotics, it draws on extensive archival research to present an in-depth study of these theorist-filmmakers and the wider field of 1970s British "counter-cinema".
