Understanding film production: Michael Klinger and the new film history

Spicer, Andrew H.

Abstract

This paper explored a wider debate about the epistemology and ontology of film history. Using the Michael Klinger papers, it offered an original exploration of an unknown history: his attempt to produce a Jewish epic war film based on the Dieppe Raid and the account of it in James Leasor’s Green Beach.
