Riassunto

This accessible introduction to the study of film aims to stimulate students' enjoyment and understanding of a wide range of different types of film, and to give them an awareness of the nature of cinema as a medium, as an art form, and as a social and economic institution. Contemporary film is seen in context by tracing its development from 1895 to the present, exploring film production in a variety of countries in a range of styles, and placing film next to other media.

Recensione:

The glossary is worth the purchase price alone, covering succinct and accurate definitions of all the key terms needed in A/S film and higher. The layout is clear and more logical than most. Overall, it manages to cover notoriously difficult areas as thoroughly and accessibly as any other text that I have seen, and better than most - well worth a look for A/S film: two thumbs up! --The Lecturer (NATFHE journal)
