Practical Film Criticism: An Enlightened Approach to Moviegoing: v. 1 (Studies in History & Criticism of Film S.) - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

The two volumes of "Practical Film Criticism" are an attempt to grapple with the nature of film art through the evaluation of vital and representative instances of that art, created throughout the world, from 1993 to 1998. The essays contained herein are acts of analysis and interpretation, they are neither windy theoretical musings nor impenetrable scholarly tracts. In addition, there are two translations of visionary articles by prominent international directors; an extended interview with an esteemed American movie critic, a speculative piece on the relationships among theatre, fiction and film; an overview of the careers of the Vittorio De Sica and Woody Allen; and a long, polemical introduction. The book is generously illustrated.
