Filmosophy - About Framptons Radically New Way of Understanding Cinema

More about the book

Frampton's theory revolutionizes the understanding of film by asserting that it transcends mere photographic reproduction of reality. He argues that contemporary films often present realistic images that never existed as filmed events. Through his unique language, he explores how film material transforms into its own world, complete with distinct processes and thoughts. This shift in perspective emphasizes the necessity for a corresponding change in audience reception, reflecting the evolving landscape of film production and interpretation.
