In Differences in the Dark, Michael T. Gilmore explores the divergent streams of American and British culture through each country's favorite medium: film and drama, respectively. An original cross-cultural study, this book shows the place of the movies in the country of reinvented lives and wide-open spaces, as contrasted with the disciplined traditions of the stage rigorously followed by actors and directors and British notions of class and collective memory.
