Review of Richard Rushton, The Reality of Film: Theories of Filmic Reality

摘要

This review focuses on Richard Rushton's The Reality of Film (Manchester University Press, 2011), a book that does not study filmic realism - film's representation of reality - but the innate reality of film. The book's main argument is that film's innate reality is a part of reality, not a representation of it.
