This essential core textbook provides an approachable and extensive
introduction to film theory, written by two highly experienced
senior lecturers. Bringing a fresh, contemporary and accessible
approach to what is often perceived to be a challenging and
old-fashioned area of film studies that requires time and effort to
grasp, the text illustrates why theory is important and
demonstrates how it can be applied in a meaningful way. The book's
sixteen chapters are clear and comprehensive and provide an insight
into the main areas of debate, using clear definitions and
explaining complex ideas succinctly. The ideal entry point for any
student studying film, the book is designed for use on courses on
film theory on undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes
within film, cinema, media and cultural studies. New to this
