“Like the movies it discusses, Winning The Crowd: The Politics of Popular Films is both entertaining and powerful. It makes you see your favorite movies—like the James Bond series—in a new way. But it also makes you see all movies in a new way, as a force of cultural power, civic formation, and political education. As a movie critic would say: Five stars!”

— Susan McWilliams Barndt, Pomona College
