How to Watch a Movie - Paperback
$24.00
by David Thomson (Author)
In his most inventive exploration of the medium yet, David Thomson--one of our most provocative authorities on all things cinema--shows us how to get more out of watching any movie. Guiding us through each element of the viewing experience, considering the significance of everything from what we see and hear on-screen--actors, shots, cuts, dialogue, music--to the specifics of how, where, and with whom we do the viewing, Thomson explicates the movie watching experience with his customary candor and wit. Delivering keen analyses of films ranging from Citizen Kane to 12 Years a Slave, in How to Watch a Movie, Thomson shows moviegoers how to more deeply appreciate both the artistry and the manipulation of film--and in so doing enriches our viewing experience immensely.
