Books by Tino Balio

1. Tino Balio, The Foreign Film Renaissance on American Screens, 1946-1973 .  One of the best pieces of U.S. cultural history I've read in years.  This book explains and recreates the time when foreign films were culturally central in the United States.  Here is a recent article on how we are consuming foreign films today; we're in a new renaissance of production, but few people seem to know the films themselves.
