By formulating a notion of 'filmic reality', The reality of film
offers new ways of understanding our relationship with cinema. It
argues that cinema does not merely refer to, reproduce or represent
reality, but has the capacity to create its own kinds of realities.
Filmic reality is explored through the work of six key film
theorists: Andre Bazin, Christian Metz, Stanley Cavell, Gilles
Deleuze, Slavoj Zizek and Jacques Ranciere. Comprehensive
introductions are provided to each of these thinkers, whilst many
myths and misconceptions about them are effectively debunked. The
notion of filmic reality that emerges from this discussion
radically reconfigures our understanding of cinema. This book is
essential reading for film scholars, students and philosophers of
film, while it will also appeal to graduate students and
specialists in other fields. -- .
