Film Studies — The Pocket Essential Guide

This book offers a concise introduction to the appreciation and study of film. It begins with the nuts and bolts, an examination of how films are put together - framing, performance, setting, costume and editing - and then examines a number of approaches taken to film over the last half century - the auteur theory, structuralism, psychoanalysis, feminism, queer theory and so on. Applying these theories to films everyone will have seen, such as The Usual Suspects and Seven, the book also includes an overview of genres, national cinemas and film movements world-wide.
