Review:

'This book addresses a very real gap in existing introductory texts that define, explore, and apply key theoretical concepts within the field of film studies.' - Alison L. McKee, Assistant Professor, Department of Television-Radio-Film-Theatre, San Jose State University, USA

'This is the book that film students have long been waiting for: a clear, well-written and accessible introduction to film theory. Lucid theoretical exposition and case study film analysis offer readers the most intelligible summary of theory that I have yet encountered.' - Paul Sutton, Head of Media, Culture and Language, Roehampton University, UK

'I wish I'd had this book as an undergraduate!'

- Lauren Ford, Film graduate, University of Southampton, UK
