In Film Fables Jacques Ranciere turns his critical eye to the
history of modern cinema. Combining an extraordinary breadth of
analysis with an attentiveness to detail born from an obvious love
of cinema, Ranciere shows us new ways of looking at and
interpreting film. His analysis moves effortlessly from
Eisenstein's and Murnau's transition from theatre to film to Fritz
Lang's confrontation with television, from the classical poetics of
Mann's Westerns to Ray's romantic poetics of the image, from
Rossellini's neo-realism to Deleuze's philosophy of the cinema. The
book also includes extended commentaries on the work of Hitchcock,
Godard, Vertov and Bergman. Film Fables is essential reading for
anyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the power and
complexity of the cinematic form and it's rich history.
