“A welcome, timely, and wide-ranging collection of essays on the body swap film. The volume is well-researched and considers films not only from Hollywood, where the body swap trope is principally derived, but in other global cinemas. In addition, the volume considers the digital body swap enabled by meme cultures, and the pleasures of player’s embodiment of video game avatars. It revisits some mainstays of the body swap trope, such as Freaky Friday, and combines this with less well-trodden examples. This is a well-written, engaging and interdisciplinary account of the body swap film.” • Frances Smith, University of Sussex
