Description and Table of Contents

Description

The Aesthetics and Psychology of the Cinema supplies the missing link between classical film theorists like Balacz and Munsterberg and film semioticians like Metz. Mitry's work is the apotheosis and grand summation of the psychological and formalist views of film. This one-volume condensation of the classic Esthetique et psychologie du cinema concentrates on film matters. Mitry discusses such topics as the film image, rhythm and montage, rhythm and moving shots, and time and space of the drama.
