Sound or silence, loss or gain?

The Weimar Cinema debate about the transition of sound

More about the book

The essay explores the integration of speech into films during the Late Weimar Cinema, emphasizing that simply adding dialogue does not create a cohesive cinematic experience. It critiques the relationship between sound and visual storytelling, arguing that the essence of film transcends mere dialogue. The analysis is rooted in media history and film studies, reflecting on how narrative and sound interact to shape the art of cinema in this specific historical context.
