The advent of new screening practices and viewing habits in the
twenty-first century has spurred a public debate over what it means
to be a "cinephile." In Anxious Cinephilia, Sarah Keller places
these competing visions in historical and theoretical perspective,
tracing how the love of movies intertwines with anxieties over the
content and impermanence of cinematic images. Keller reframes the
history of cinephilia from the earliest days of film through the
French New Wave and into the streaming era, arguing that love and
fear have shaped the cinematic experience from its earliest days.
This anxious love for the cinema marks both institutional practices
and personal experiences, from the curation of the moviegoing
experience to the creation of community and identity through film
festivals to posting on social media. Through a detailed analysis
of films and film history, Keller examines how changes in cinema
practice and spectatorship create anxiety even as they inspire
nostalgia. Anxious Cinephilia offers a new theoretical approach to
the relationship between spectator and cinema and reimagines the
concept of cinephilia to embrace its diverse forms and its
uncertain future.
