Melodrama is very much with us, especially in action films and thrillers. In theatre there are more psychological insights, greater introspection, and contemporary theatre is adamant about calling itself something else, but the melodramatic bones are still much there in the X-rays--call it psychological melodrama, where the journey is interior and where the detective is a character employing all the tools of the psychiatrist.
Disher is a terrific writer, insightful and entertaining. BLOOD AND THUNDER covers the first half of the 19th century. His follow-up book, PLOTS THAT THRILLED, covers the second half and into the early 20th. Together they are an excellent chronicle of the rise and spread of melodrama in its myriad forms and formulations, closing with its morphing into film.
