This book investigates a group of exceptional films that
single-mindedly consider one particular emotion - be it pity, lust,
grief, or anxiety - to examine cinematic emotion in depth. Drawing
on philosophical and psychological approaches, Fischer's unique
analysis offers unparalleled case studies for comprehending emotion
in the movies. The book provides the reader with an opportunity to
contemplate what notion of a particular emotion is advanced
onscreen; to describe how the unique tools and aesthetics of cinema
are utilized to do so; to place such representations in dialogue
with film theory as well as philosophical and psychological
commentary; and to illustrate the important dichotomy between
filmic portrayals and audience response. Beyond film and media
scholars and students, this book will have resonance for academics
and practitioners in several fields of psychology, including social
work, psychiatry, and therapy.
