More about the book

Exploring the intersection of Jacques Derrida's philosophical ideas and film theory, this work argues for a reevaluation of cinema's role in media and information sciences. Brunette and Wills critique the neglect of Derrida in film studies, offering insights into his concepts of "Writing" and their relevance to film analysis. They provide a detailed critique of contemporary assumptions, analyze Truffaut's and Lynch's films through a radical reading lens, and redefine cinema in relation to Derrida's overlooked work, The Post Card, emphasizing a new technological perspective.
