Understanding Movies Details
Appropriate for courses in Introduction to Film, Film and Drama, and Film and Literature. Understanding Movies is designed to help Canadian students analyze movies with precision and technical sophistication. Its focus is on formalism-how the forms of the film (e.g., camera work, editing, photography, etc.) create meaning in a film. The second Canadian edition updates each chapter with Canadian films and personalities familiar to Canadian students.

Reviews
For years, Professor Emeritus Louis Giannetti's UNDERSTANDING MOVIES texts were the gold standard for college into-to-film courses. This one maintains the tradition. Be aware, though, that it's geared toward Canadian readers.
