About this book
"Roy Baker's career, in many ways, reflects the changes in the British film industry from the 1930s to the 1970s. This book not only outlines Baker's career but provides a context to understand the way in which aesthetic, industrial and personal factors can generate 'surprising' films such as the German pilot trying to escape wartime Britain in The One That Got Away, the sexual undercurrents and emotional excesses of The Singer Not the Song and the sensual cruelty of The Vampire Lovers."--BOOK JACKET.
