Film Theory and Criticism by Gerald Mast
Since publication of the first edition in 1974, Film Theory and Criticism has been the standard anthology of critical writing about film. The sixth edition continues to highlight both classic and cutting edge essays from more than a century of thought and writing, with contributors ranging from Sergei Eisenstein and Vsevolod Pudovkin to the latest scholars writing on the impact of digital technology on the film industry; recent considerations of issues such as the sociological, psychological and philosophical dimensions of film; and controversial areas such as gender and race.
