"Stanley Kubrick's account of an ambitious racetrack robbery is one of Hollywood's tautest, twistiest noirs. Aided by a radically time-shuffling narrative, razor-sharp dialogue from pulp novelist Jim Thompson, and a phenomenal cast of character actors, including Sterling Hayden, Coleen Gray, Timothy Carey, and Elisha Cook Jr., The Killing is both a jaunty thriller and a cold-blooded punch to the gut. With its precise tracking shots and gratifying...

The writings are grouped into four historically significant periods (''Leaving Colonialism,'' ''Facing Independence,'' ''Looking In,'' and ''Losing Control''). It's an effective construct; the reader experiences island culture and history as a part of its time, formed by a pastiche of nationality, culture,...
