| Summary: | Claude Lanzmann's Shoah: Key Essays, edited (and, in part, translated) by Stuart Liebman, is an important collection that will prove indispensable to scholars and students of Lanzmann's monumental film. More broadly, it will appeal to anyone interested in Holocaust cinema and this seminal moment in its history—a film that Liebman terms “a cultural achievement of the greatest magnitude” (p. 4). In his introduction, Liebman points out the filmmaker's groundbreaking accomplishment in premiering Shoah in 1985, when few eyewitness accounts had reached broad audiences and videotaping projects were in their infancy. |
