Description du livre Soft cover. Etat : New. No Jacket. Photographs and drawings (illustrateur). 1st Edition. Is it a good thing to study the art of the film? This question seems to have been answered by the widespread growth of film courses in American colleges-over 4,000 of them according to a recent American Film Institute catalogue. Some film viewers, like some novel readers, ask only for experiences: entertainment; enlightenment, perhaps; intense moments of pleasure or revelation. They love the endless variety of movies and do not want to analyze them. Others insist on conscious intellectual response, ranging from judgments of aesthetic value to lengthy explications of all possible symbolic meanings. Students of today and tomorrow will continue to act on their belief that cinema, when examined, yields levels of meaning unknown to the artists who created the works., On occasion, students find it rewarding to look deeply at cinema works of art through the deep-focus spectacles of linguistics, aesthetics, anthropology, semiotics, psychiatry, or Marxism. Cinema Journal, founded in 1966 and the origin of these eighteen essays, has tried to follow a middle path between cinema buffs and cinema zealots, following the assumptions that (1) there is work to be done in seeking to understand better the art of the film, (2) there is an increasing readership of well-informed students and teachers, and (3) there is much to be gained from film scholarship that stresses caution, accuracy, balance, footnoted research, support of assertions by examples, and direct references to individual shots in the film being analyzed.
