Coates’ applications of Freud and Marx sometimes suggest the eager graduate student, and a few of his sociological observations are rigid and lifeless. And novelists or scriptwriters who read him will be dismayed that he doesn’t treat the films’ source materials; after acknowledging the difficulty of ascribing credit, he sticks to the finished films. But he’s as clear and straight an analytic thinker as anyone I’ve ever read on movies, and, perhaps because he takes up many of the liveliest issues and the liveliest directors, he’s one of the most pleasurable theoretician-critics to read. There’s none of the kind of inflation that’s common in film books now; he doesn’t enshrine the artists, making a fetish of everything they’ve done. It’s elegant, pithy writing. I regret a certain highbrowism in his tone (and in his interests, too), and the title essay (the title is from E.T.A. Hoffmann) is a touch too labyrinthine for my taste.
