ReFocus: The Films of Spike Jonze is the first collection of essays on this important and original contemporary filmmaker. It looks at his ground-breaking work in both features and short forms, exploring the impact of his filmmaking across a range of philosophical and cultural discussions.
Each of Jonze's feature films, from Being John Malkovich (1999) to Her (2013), is discussed at length, focusing on issues of authorship, narration, genre and adaptation. As well as the textual aspects of Jonze's feature films, the contributors consider his work in music videos and shorts - investigating his position as a filmmaker on the blurred boundaries between studio and independent modes of production.

Industry Reviews

Spike Jonze excels at coloring inside and outside the lines, working as producer, writer and director - and performing as stuntman, skateboarder and dancer, too. Wilkins and Moss-Wellington's insightful anthology studies his feature films, music videos, commercials, and shorts. A welcome addition to scholarship, it speaks to everyone interested in transmedia production and innovative authorship.--Christine A. Holmlund, Professor Emerita, Cinema Studies, University of Tennessee
