520 8  Annotation|bJohn Paizs's 'Crime Wave' examines the 
       Winnipeg filmmaker's 1985 cult film as an important 
       example of early postmodern cinema and as a significant 
       precursor to subsequent postmodern blockbusters, including
       the much later Hollywood film Adaptation. Crime Wave's 
       comic plot is simple: aspiring screenwriter Steven Penny, 
       played by Paizs, finds himself able to write only the 
       beginnings and endings of his scripts, but never (as he 
       puts it) "the stuff in-between." Penny is the classic 
       writer suffering from writer's block, but the viewer sees 
       him as the (anti)hero in a film told through stylistic 
       parody of 1940s and 50s B-movies, TV sitcoms, and 
       educational films.In John Paizs's 'Crime Wave, ' writer 
       and filmmaker Jonathan Ball offers the first book-length 
       study of this curious Canadian film, which self-
       consciously establishes itself simultaneously as following,
       but standing apart from, American cinematic and television
       conventions. Paizs's own story mirrors that of Steven 
       Penny: both find themselves at once drawn to American 
       culture and wanting to subvert its dominance. Exploring 
       Paizs's postmodern aesthetic and his use of pastiche as a 
       cinematic technique, Ball establishes Crime Wave as an 
       overlooked but important cult classic.
