Darwin's Screens: Evolutionary Aesthetics, Time and Sexual Display in the Cinema
Barbara Creed
Addresses the major gap in film scholarship - the influence of Charles Darwin's theories on the history of the cinema. This title argues that Darwinian ideas influenced the evolution of early film genres such as horror, the detective film, science fiction, film noir and the musical.
