In the words of Richard Maltby, this ""describes two improbably imbricated worlds and the piece of cultural history their intersections provoked."" One of these worlds comprises a clutch of noisy, garish pulp movies. The other is occupied by critics, intellectuals, cinephiles, and filmmakers who championed the cause of these movies and incited the cultural guardians of the day by attacking a rigorously policed canon of tasteful, rarified, and ossified art objects.
