The feel-good place to buy books
Abject Pleasures in the Cinematic by Aaron Kerner
Examines the cinematic strategies that elicit visceral pleasure in the face of content that is crass, politically problematic, or unethical
"We find it hard to talk about why we really enjoy moviesWe swoon, shiver, laugh, and get aroused. But it can be embarrassing to confess to such responses, and difficult to describe them in words. Aaron Kerner addresses such dilemmas head-on in this brilliant book." -Steven Shaviro, Wayne State University
