Ratcatcher (Bfi Film Classics)

The film-maker Lynne Ramsay has been hailed as one of the finest new talents in world cinema, and Ratcatcher, her first feature, has attracted international acclaim. In this book, the first full-length study of Ramsay’s work, Annette Kuhn considers the director’s background and explores Ratcatcher alongside her other films. Kuhn places the film in the context of Scottish media and literary cultures and includes interviews with Ramsay and others on the film’s production team.
