Item description from seller

Paperback. When we think of the pulse in cinema, we may think of the heartbeat of the spectator as they respond to affective or moving scenes in the film, or how fast-paced and shocking images exacerbate this affective response. Conceptually extending cinema spectatorship, The Pulse in Cinema contends that cinema is an energetic arrangement of affective and intense forces, where the image and the spectator are specific components. Analysing body horror films such as The Tingler (1959), Dawn of the Dead (1978) and The Beyond (1981), this book builds on Lyotards concept of the dispositif, Deleuzes work on sensation and Batailles economic theory to conceptualise a pulse in cinema, arguing for its importance in cinema spectatorship theory. The Pulse in Cinema acknowledges that the pulse is "felt" in the body, yet also argues that the pulse has a wider reaching effect in cinema than simply the physiological response of the spectator to the image its the affective force in cinema.
