The Cinema as Art'.to those brought up on the movie show and bubble gum image, must look like a pretentious contradiction in terms.


As this book demonstrates, however, the cinema stands for an art form which is almost unique in immediacy and scope. The authors explain, with over 300 examples taken from films of every country and period, the stages by which a director isolates what is mentally and emotionally significant in a situation.

270 pages. Black and white photographic paper cover with photographic black and white plates throughout.  The cover has a small piece of missing art in the bottom left corner, see photos.
