"The original publication of Jim Kitses' Horizons West in 1969 revealed the heavy impact of auteurism on the development of genre criticism. Thanks to the French New Wave, André Bazin and other writers affiliated with Cahiers du cinéma, it became both historically cool and critically legitimate to celebrate the Hollywood director and the Hollywood genre film as a potential source of “art”" --Senses of Cinema [1]
