內容簡介
內容簡介 In The Arts of Cinema, Martin Seel explores films connections to the other arts and the qualities that distinguish it from them. In nine concise and elegantly written chapters, he explores the cinemas singular aesthetic potential and uses specific examples from a diverse range of filmsfrom Antonioni and Hitchcock to The Searchers and The Bourne Supremacyto demonstrate the many ways this potential can be realized. Seels analysis provides both a new perspective on film as a comprehensive aesthetic experience and a nuanced understanding of what the medium does to us once we are in the cinema.
