The book makes this case by surveying what has been written about four historically important and well-known movies (D. W. Griffith’s .Way Down East., Marcel Carné’s .Port of Shadows., Mike Nichols’s .The Graduate., and Michelangelo Antonioni’s .Red Desert.), none of which has been the focus of sustained critical attention, and by exhaustively examining the kinds of work published in four influential film journals (.Cinema Journal., .Screen., .Wide Angle., and .Movie.). The book goes on to argue for the value of the work of interpretation, illustrating this value through extended analyses of Roman Polanski’s .Chinatown. and Christopher Nolan’s .Memento., both of which thematize interpretation. Novak demonstrates the causes and consequences of reading poorly and the importance of reading well. . | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Film Studies; Interpretation; Meaning; Teaching Film; Film History; Film Journals | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-44739-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-44741-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-44739-7 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
