Description de l'ouvrage :
This book challenges the long-standing presumption that serious philosophical engagement with film and television must be theoretical. It demonstrates, by example, how philosophy of film and film studies can move beyond the methodological assumption that understands philosophical to mean theoretical. In seventeen specially commissioned essays, one in-depth interview, and one reprint, leading philosophers and film scholars exploit the approaches, arguments, and insights of Ludwig Wittgenstein, Stanley Cavell, Iris Murdoch, Augustine, Berys Gaut, Noël Carroll, and Ordinary Language Philosophy, in exploring, amongst others, Gravity, Lone Star, The Handmaid’s Tale, Le notti di Cabiria, Dunkirk, L'Année dernière à Marienbad, Visitors, The Night it Rained, Philadelphia Story, Shoah, Mary Magdalene, Psycho, Blue Jasmine, Three Colours: Red, War Games, and Histoire(s) du Cinéma. In so doing, this collection argues forthe power of theory-free philosophy and film studies as a way to expand our humanistic understanding.

Revue de Presse :
"In many ways, this edited collection of eighteen original essays represents both a second wave in post-theory film-thinking, and an entirely new point of departure. … This book follows in the path of titles such as Read and Goodenough’s Film as Philosophy (2005) … as an extremely welcome contribution to the field, whose variety provides much ground for future dialogue." (Alexis Gibbs, Film and Philosophy, Vol. 28, 2024)
