Simone de Beauvoir's work has not often been associated with film
studies, which appears paradoxical when it is recognized that she
was the first feminist thinker to inaugurate the concept of the
gendered 'othering' gaze. This book is an attempt to redress this
balance and reopen the dialogue between Beauvoir's writings and
film studies. The authors analyse a range of films, from directors
including Claire Denis, Michael Haneke, Lucille Hadzihalilovic, Sam
Mendes, and Sally Potter, by drawing from Beauvoir's key works such
as The Second Sex (1949), The Ethics of Ambiguity (1947) and Old
Age (1970).
