Beginning with the intellectual and institutional history, and the cultural politics, of American underground cinema, this work moves to the filmmakers' work - Anger's taste for ornamentation, stylistic excess, and hot-rod and motor-cycle subcultures; Smith's interest in 1920s and 40s movie glamour and decaying urban landscapes.
