It reworks Pasolini's landmark concept of 'the cinema of poetry' to look at the transformation of film form in its encounter with society, the sacred, the subjective and the presence of the camera. In the 1970s, the influential forms of a cinema of poetry are analysed in key features by Altman, Herzog, Malick, Scorsese, Weir, Von Trotta and Tarkovsky while in the 1980s and 1990s the emergence of new filmmakers has meant a diffusion of different cinemas of poetry using new techniques and new poetries. Of key importance here is the work of Kieslowski, Lynch, Egoyan, Campion, Greenaway, Zhang Yimou, Tran Anh Hung and Wong Kar-Wai, as well as the reinvention of science fiction and film noir in American genre."

The essay film : dialogue; politics; utopia / edited by Elizabeth A. Papazian and Caroline Eades New York; Chichester, UK: Wallflower Press, 2016.
Call No: 632.22 ESSAuthor: Papazian, Elizabeth A ; Eades, Caroline Edition: 2016Place: New York; Chichester, UKPublisher: Wallflower PressPubDate: 2016PhysDes: xi,315 p. : illustrated ; 23 cmSubject: DOCUMENTARY FILMS ; EXPERIMENTAL FILMS ; CELOVEK S KINOAPPARATOM (UR, Dziga Vertov, 1929) ; TREE OF LIFE, THE (US, Terrence Malick, 2011) ; VERTOV, DZIGA ; MARKER, CHRIS ; Pasolini, Pier Paolo ; AKERMAN, CHANTAL ; GODARD, JEAN-LUC ; MORETTI, NANNI ; DENIS, CLAIRE ; MALICK, TERRENCE Summary: With its increasing presence in a continuously evolving media environment, the essay film as a visual form raises new questions about the construction of the subject, its relationship to the world, and the aesthetic possibilities of cinema. In this volume, authors specializing in various national cinemas (Cuban, French, German, Israeli, Italian, Lebanese, Polish, Russian, American) and critical approaches (historical, aesthetic, postcolonial, feminist, philosophical) explore the essay film and its consequences for the theory of cinema while building on and challenging existing theories. Taking as a guiding principle the essay form's dialogic, fluid nature, the volume examines the potential of the essayistic to question, investigate, and reflect on all forms of cinema—fiction film, popular cinema, and documentary, video installation, and digital essay.
A wide range of filmmakers are covered, from Dziga Vertov (Man with a Movie Camera, 1928), Chris Marker (Description of a Struggle, 1960), Nicolás Guillén Landrián (Coffea Arábiga, 1968), Pier Paolo Pasolini (Notes for an African Oresteia, 1969), Chantal Akerman (News from Home, 1976) and Jean-Luc Godard (Notre musique, 2004) to Nanni Moretti (Palombella Rossa, 1989), Mohammed Soueid (Civil War, 2002), Claire Denis (L'Intrus, 2004) and Terrence Malick (The Tree of Life, 2011), among others. The volume argues that the essayistic in film—as process, as experience, as experiment—opens the road to key issues faced by the individual in relation to the collective, but can also lead to its own subversion, as a form of dialectical thought that gravitates towards crisis. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780231176958Contents: Acknowledgments -- Notes on Contributors -- Introduction: Dialogue, Politics, Utopia, by Elizabeth A.
