Zusatztext
This is a truly remarkable volume, not just on account of its list of distinguished contributors. Using intermediality as its method, this collection manages to establish this most precious of balance: a study of film form that never loses sight of the medium's historicity. Naguib and Solomon's book literally brims with useful theorizations and concepts.
