Publisher's Synopsis
This issue of CCR is a very brisk set of cinematic review essays. It includes three reviews from the Editor, Anna Faktorovich, which contemplate the distinction between formulaic and anti-formulaic, and scientific versus absurdly imaginative types of cinema by reviewing two television series, Away and Obliterated, and the film Love and Monsters. Additionally, Quentin Stuckey analyzes the limitations to humor imposed by the Covid pandemic as they are portrayed in Bo Burnham's The Inside Outtakes (2022) and other films.
