"This book is an important and cutting-edge contribution. . . . A provocative, entertaining contribution to context and material culture studies, The Stuff of Spectatorship provides an outstanding rationale to investigate stuff." * Film Quarterly *
"These unique analyses leave readers aware that a show's or a film's meaning and interest hinge on a material experience inseparable from the images flashing on the screen." * CHOICE *
"Benson-Allott's approach draws on an array of subfields within film and media studies including media industry studies, spectatorship and reception studies, new cinema history, and material culture studies." * H-Net Review *
