Description de l'ouvrage:
The Film Theory in Practice series fills a gaping hole in the world of film theory. By marrying the explanation of a film theory with the interpretation of a film, the volumes provide discrete examples of how film theory can serve as the basis for textual analysis. Feminist Film Theory and Cléo from 5 to 7 offers a concise introduction to feminist film theory in jargon-free language and shows how this theory can be deployed to interpret Agnes Varda's critically acclaimed 1962 film Cléo from 5 to 7.
Hilary Neroni employs the methodology of looking for a feminist alternative among female-oriented films. Through three key concepts-identification, framing the woman's body, and the female auteur-Neroni lays bare the debates and approaches within the vibrant history of feminist film theory, providing a point of entry to feminist film theory from its inception to today. Picking up one of the currents in feminist film theory - that of looking for feminist alternatives among female-oriented films - Neroni traces feminist responses to the contradictions inherent in most representations of women in film, and she details how their responses have intervened in changing what we see on the screen.

Revue de Presse:
"In this useful entry in Bloomsbury’s Film Theory in Practice series, Neroni (The Subject of Torture) clearly and helpfully explains concepts that are important to feminist film theory, using French director Agnès Varda’s 1962 film Cléo from 5 to 7 as a case study … Cléo is a rich subject for study, and the author’s analysis is nuanced … the work’s accessibility makes this an invaluable primer on film theory. One hopes the rest of the series is just as well executed and that Neroni’s voice will often be heard in future." -Publishers Weekly
"…Neroni’s text will appeal to many since its approach is both general and specific in its concise review of previous research and trends in the field as well as its presentation of new perspectives … a must-read in French feminist film theory courses." – The French Review
