What is a movie?

Based on authoritative editions, this book features 28 renowned essays, including "Charlie Chaplin," "The Myth of Monsieur Verdoux," "The Spring and Autumn of the Stage, or, The Death of Molière," and "A Morphological Study of the Pin-Up Girl." This book clearly demonstrates Bazin's unwavering commitment to the study of film's essence. His writings cover topics such as film ontology, film sociology, film psychology, and film aesthetics, earning him the prestigious title of "the Aristotle of Cinema." He championed the aesthetics of cinematic realism and proposed the concept of "film as the asymptote of reality" and the theory of mise-en-scène. Bazin and Cahiers du Cinema fueled the rise of the New Wave in French cinema after World War II.
