In Time, Existential Presence and the Cinematic Image, Sam B.
Girgus relates Laura Mulvey's theory of "delayed cinema" to ideas
on time and the relationship to the other in the writings of
Jean-Luc Nancy, Emmanuel Levinas and Julia Kristeva, among others.
The sustained tension in film between, in Mulvey's phrase,
"stillness and the moving image" enacts a drama of existential
emergence. The stillness of the framed image in relation to the
moving image opens "free" cinematic time and space for a fresh
engagement with crucial ethical and cultural issues. With close
readings of films such as The Bicycle Thieves, Two Days, One Night,
The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, The Revenant and The Age
of Innocence, this book proposes a fresh approach to reading film
in the context of emerging existential presence and the ethical
imperative.
