Books, Letterboxd reviewers, Substacks, anything. I've been watching a bunch of Czechoslovak New Wave films and so many of the English-language essays I can find about them have brainworms and insist that every film by an Eastern European director is first and foremost an anti-communist allegory.

This book looks great but doesn't cover all of the movements I'm interested in.

Robin Wood is probably the most well known and respected Marxist film critic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Wood_(critic)
