description: Cinema like language can be said to exist as a system of differences. In Intervals of Cinema acclaimed philosopher Jacques Rancire looks at cinematic art in comparison to its corollary forms in literature and theatre. From literature he argues cinema takes its narrative conventions while at the same time effacing literatures images and philosophy; and film rejects theatre while also fulfilling theatres dream.
