"With these crisscrossing themes and trajectories, Cinemasaurus carefully traces a nuanced picture of multiple, often contradictory, tendencies in Russian film today. It looks equally to the past and future; and it investigates features both little and large, both peripheral and imperial. For these reasons, the editors and contributors are to be congratulated alike. Ideally suited to cinema survey classes, Cinemasaurus will offer clarity to both students and scholars, and it will prompt substantial future research." - Studies in European Cinema"In its broad intellectual ambition, and in the consistently informed and incisive essays of the young scholars whom [Condee] has nurtured, this handsomely produced volume is also a salute to her own inestimable contribution to our understanding of contemporary Russian cinema and society." - Russian Review
