Film: the Key Concepts presents a coherent, clear and exciting
overview of film theory for beginning readers. The book takes the
reader through the often conflicting analyses which make up film
theory, illustrating arguments with examples from mainstream and
independent films. It isolates 6 key concepts in film theory - the
photogenic in film, dialectic film montage, film constructs,
imaginary signifiers, voyeuristic pleasures and simulacra - each
with its own, short essay. Through these concepts it covers the
main sites in film theory: realism, formalism, structuralism,
semiotics, Marxism, psychoanalysis, feminism, cognitivism,
post-colonialism, postmodernism, gender and queer film theories.
Each chapter stands on its own, tracing the historical evolution of
each concept to the present. The book as a whole provides a
complete overview of the evolution of film theory. In order to help
introductory students, each chapter includes boxed summaries of key
theorists, bulleted summaries and an Annotated Guide to Further
Reading.
