'A brilliantly readable and insightful book.' Mark Kermode, Observer

'Deftly, delightfully, yet inexorably, Ellen E Jones shows us exactly what's wrong with the world as we usually see it on screen. With her big love of cinema and her very big brain, she's the best film critic in a generation.' Lucy Worsley

Is race comedy 'cancelled'?

Is there such a thing as an Indigenous Western?

Where are all the films about 'whiteness'?

Ellen E. Jones combines her personal experience as a mixed-race woman with her professional expertise as a film and TV journalist of twenty years to ask and answer these questions. Screen Deep illuminates the immense potential of screen storytelling to challenge societal racism, and ultimately defeat it.

ELLEN E. JONES is a journalist and broadcaster. She is the co-host of Screenshot, the BBC's flagship film and TV programme, the host of the Barbican's ScreenTalks podcast and writes regularly on film and television for the Guardian and Empire magazine. She was formerly TV critic at the Independent, a current affairs columnist at the Evening Standard, i Paper and Independent on Sunday and the resident critic for BBC One's Film 2017 and Film 2016.
