Film is dead! Three little words that have been heard around the
world many times over the life of the cinema. Yet, some 120 years
on, the old dog's ability to come up with new tricks and live
another day remains as surprising and effective as ever. This book
is an exploration of film's ability to escape its own 'The End'
title card. It charts the history of cinema's development through a
series of crises that could, should, ought to have 'ended' it. From
its origins to Covid - via a series of unlikely friendships with
sound, television and the internet - the book provides industry
professionals, scholars and lovers of cinema with an informing and
intriguing journey into the afterlife of cinema and back to the
land of the living. It is also a rare collaboration between an
Oscar-winning filmmaker and a film scholar, a chronicle of their
attempt to bridge two worlds that have often looked at each other
with as much curiosity as doubt, but that are bound by the deep
love of cinema that they both share.
