Description: "In this innovative work of cultural history, Simon Sigley approaches cinema as a form of social practice. He examines the reception of international film theories and discourses and shows how these ideas helped to shape distinct cultural practices, including new forms of reviewing, new methods of teaching, and new institutions such as film societies, art-house cinemas, and film festivals in New Zealand." --Back cover.
