<br/><br/> "Chard examines the filmmaker Hughes's career in New Hollywood cinema and explores his ability to achieve mainstream success while maintaining creative control over his films and making his name into a brand. She uses his example to question broader understandings of how New Hollywood worked in the 1980s and 1990s and the nature of authorship in filmmaking"--
