Description: "New Developments in Film Theory investigates how film studies have been influenced by major theoretical advances in postmodernism and poststructuralism while revealing how the study of film has affected those critical movements. Covering topics such as love, terror, the body and passion, and theories such as feminism, psychoanalysis, philosophy and semiotics, the author provides new and alternative methods for analysing film.".

"This book challenges conventional assumptions about film studies, offers a new approach and provides an explication of the most significant theoretical ideas to emerge in the humanities in the last fifty years."--BOOK JACKET.
