Summary: "Filmosophy is a provocative new manifesto for a radically philosophical way of understanding cinema. It coalesces twentieth-century ideas of film as thought (from Hugo Münsterberg to Gilles Deleuze) into a practical theory of "film-thinking," arguing that film style conveys poetic ideas through a constant dramatic "intent" about the characters, spaces, and events of film. Discussing contemporary filmmakers such as Béla Tarr and the Dardenne brothers, this timely contribution to the study of film and philosophy will provoke debate among audiences and filmmakers alike." - taken from publisher website.

Summary: "This book examines Jean Renoir's films from the 1930s in the light of recent developments in philosophical film criticism. With reference to thinkers such as Aristotle, Wittgenstein, Girard, Derrida and Cavell, it argues that Renoir's work engages with and elucidates some of the great philosophical questions. In particular the films are shown to reflect on the natures of murder and its links with desire, communitiy, ethics and the mystery of other minds." - TAKEN FROM BACK COVER
