The Lure of the Image shows how a close study of camera
movement challenges key assumptions underlying a wide range of
debates within cinema and media studies. Highlighting the shifting
intersection of point of view and camera position, Daniel Morgan
draws on a range of theoretical arguments and detailed analyses
across cinemas to reimagine the relation between spectator and
camera—and between camera and film world. With sustained
accounts of how the camera moves in films by Fritz Lang, Guru Dutt,
Max Ophuls, and Terrence Malick and in contemporary digital
technologies, The Lure of the Image exposes the
persistent fantasy that we move with the camera within the world of
the film and examines the ways that filmmakers have exploited this
fantasy. In so doing, Morgan provides a more flexible account of
camera movement, one that enables a fuller understanding of the
political and ethical stakes entailed by this key component of
cinematic style.
