Since 2001, Trevor Lynch has developed a fervent following with his insightful and sometimes vicious dissections of philosophical, political, racial, and sexual themes in a wide variety of films and television shows. Trevor Lynch: Part Four of the Trilogy is his fourth anthology, covering thirty-three films, including two documentaries, plus two TV shows. Lynch includes extensive essays on David Lynch's Blue Velvet and Lost Highway, as well as a shorter treatment of The Straight Story . He also offers detailed commentaries on Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut , Akira Kurosawa's High and Low , Sidney Lumet's Network , Luchino Visconti's The Leopard , David Fincher's Fight Club, and John Huston's Wise Blood. Other outstanding reviews interpret Martin Scorsese's The Aviator , Blake Edwards' Breakfast at Tiffany's , John Schlesinger's Far from the Madding Crowd , Anthony Minghella's The Talented Mr. Ripley , and Ren??? Cl???ment's Purple Noon . Lynch gives special attention to a number of films that convey politically incorrect messages, often in spite of themselves, such as American Pimp , Cabaret , Look Who's Back , Once Upon a Time in Hollywood , Quiz Show , Richard Jewell , Starship Troopers , and Storytelling . Finally, Lynch hilariously pans Gattaca , the finale of Game of Thrones , Joker , and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker . Trevor Lynch: Part Four of the Trilogy further burnishes its author's status as a leading New Right cultural critic.
