- Summary:
- Film theory was one of the 20th century's great adventures in thought; it shows every sign of flourishing in the twenty-first. How have directors, writers, cultural thinkers and philosophers comprehended the aesthetics, ethics, psychology and politics of this most modern, most popular and most loved of art forms? Cinemas of the Mind reconstructs and intervenes in the fascinating debates that have pitted the history of thinking about film. Both an engaging history and an invaluable sourcebook, this book examines a vast pool of thought.
