Rezensionen
'The essays in European Film Theory provide a long overdue critical remapping of what has been called 'theory' in contemporary film studies. No philosophical stone goes unturned in this remarkable volume, and many are then sculpted into provocative and original arguments.' - D.N. Rodowick, Harvard University, USA
'A key resource for film theory... A richly detailed volume in every respect, the text is distinguished by its scope, the sweep of its rhetoric, and the numerous films it examines... Highly recommended.' - CHOICE
