From: Abigail Major [[email protected]] Dear Colleague, Berghahn Books is pleased to announce the recent publication of two new film titles. Lost Objects of Desire: The Performance of Jeremy Irons by Mark Nicholls is the first book-length critical study of the actor's key performances and acting style. Through the analysis of some of the major screen roles in Irons's career, such as Brideshead Revisited, The French Lieutenant's Woman, Reversal of Fortune, Swann in Love, Dead Ringers and Lolita, Nicholls identifies a new masculine identity that unites them: an emblematic figure of the 1980s and 1990s presented as an alternative to the action hero or the common man.

Cinema of Choice: Optional Thinking and Narrative Movies by Nitzan Ben Shaul examines movies that present alternative narrative paths.
