An exploration of the film as a more expressive and profound medium. Includes an analysis of a sound-film sequence from Alexander Nevsky. “The most instructive discussion of the film art yet put between the covers of a book” (New York Times Book Review). Edited and translated by Jay Leyda; Index; photographs and diagrams.
If you're looking for a cookie cutter, paint by numbers, book on filmmaking, so you can make Die Hard XX, this is not that. But if you're looking for theories and philosophies that will stay with you forever, and that can help open your mind to find your own cinematic voice, then this is the book for you. This book is very dense, so don't think this will be a light read. Expect to have to reread sections. If you know what you're getting into with this book you'll probably love it as I do.
