Film as Art, 50th Anniversary Printing

ISBN: 0520248376

Author: Arnheim, Rudolf

Condition: Used

In the fall of 1957 the University of California Press expanded Arnheims 1933 book Film by four essays and brought that landmark work back into print as Film as Art. Now nearly fifty years after that re-edition, the book continues to occupy an important place in the literature of film. Arnheims method, provocative in this age of technological wizardry, was to focus on the way art in film was derived from that mediums early limitations: no sound, no color, no three-dimensional depth.
