Features
-Frame enlargements used instead of production stills. All film images presented in the text are frame enlargements—magnified photographs taken from images on the actual strip of film. This enables students to see images that directly correspond to images in the finished films.
-Notes and Queries section: At the end of most chapters, this section attempts to raise issues and provoke discussion. It also suggests further reading and research, acting as a bibliographic source for specific issues in the chapter.
-Bibliography, Glossary, and Internet Sites: A list of the most basic and current introductions to the main periods and movements in film history is provided to accompany Chapter 12. A glossary of terms can be found at the end of the book as well as a list of many of the best Internet sites related to cinema.
-The McGraw-Hill Film Viewer's Guide by David Bordwell is packaged FREE with new copies of the text. This booklet provides important tips on film viewing and analysis.
-The unique Film, Form, and Culture CD-ROM by Robert Kolker is available at a discount when packaged with the text.
