This volume collects twenty original essays on the philosophy of
film. It uniquely brings together scholars working across a range
of philosophical traditions and academic disciplines to broaden and
advance debates on film and philosophy. The book includes
contributions from a number of prominent philosophers of film
including Noel Carroll, Chris Falzon, Deborah Knight, Paisley
Livingston, Robert Sinnerbrink, Malcolm Turvey, and Thomas
Wartenberg. While the topics explored by the contributors are
diverse, there are a number of thematic threads that connect them.
Overall, the book seeks to bridge analytic and continental
approaches to philosophy of film in fruitful ways. Moving to the
individual essays, the first two sections offer novel takes on the
philosophical value and the nature of film. The next section
focuses on the film-as-philosophy debate. Section IV covers
cinematic experience, while Section V includes interpretations of
individual films that touch on questions of artificial
intelligence, race and film, and cinema's biopolitical potential.
Finally, the last section proposes new avenues for future research
on the moving image beyond film. This book will appeal to a broad
range of scholars working in film studies, theory, and philosophy.
