Film Art: An Introduction
David Bordwell, Kristin Thompson

McGraw-Hill Companies, 2003

A better book than this on the art of film?? Naaa!!!!!
This book is useful as a university textbook, but is also excellent for filmgoers who would like to understand a bit more than the average audience.
  
  











  



  
The Frodo Franchise: The Lord of the Rings and Modern Hollywood
Kristin Thompson

University of California Press, 2008

The Frodo Franchise is an utterly fascinating, completely unbiased behind-the-scenes look
DVDs can be stamped out in seconds, while VHS tapes are slower to produce because they have to be recorded in real time. Time is money, and so the movie industry's movers and shakers acted decisively to all but eliminate the VHS format - by charging video rental stores ...
  
  











  



  
Storytelling in the New Hollywood: Understanding Classical Narrative Technique
Kristin Thompson

Harvard University Press, 1999

Shatters The Myth of "3-Actitis" And Other Hollywood Fables
While this book covers some of the same ground (if not the same exact screenplays) as Thomas Pope's well-written GOOD SCRIPTS, BAD SCRIPTS, Ms. Thompson clearly knows her stuff. Just to have an educated author present an argument against 3-Act structure is provacative ...

Will change how you watch movies!
This is one of the best introductions to film studies. The bulk of the book is about the formal analysis of film, from genre, to editing, staging, sound, and mise-en-scene. Although this is an introductory book, it goes very in-depth into all the formal elements of ...

Storytelling in Film and Television
Kristin Thompson

Harvard University Press, 2003

A fine book on the differences between film and television narrative strategies
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this study concerning some of the contrasts in the ways that the movies and television handles narrative, not least because for the past year or so this has been one of the topics of most interest to me. At least part of my enjoyment of ...

Film Art: An Introduction and Film Viewers Guide
David Bordwell, Kristin Thompson

McGraw-Hill Humanities/Social Sciences/Langua, 2003

From a film professor
Since an earlier review was from a film professor who trashed this book, I thought it would be a good idea if another film professor stepped forward to defend it. The complaints from the aforementioned film professor are vague -- Film Art is apparently "pretentious" ...
  
  











  



  
Breaking the Glass Armor
Kristin Thompson

Princeton University Press, 1988

"Classical works have for us become covered with the glassy armor of familiarity," wrote Victor Shklovsky in 1914. Here Kristin Thompson "defamiliarizes" the reader with eleven different films. Developing the technique formulated in her Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible (Princeton, 1981), she clearly demonstrates the flexibility of the neoformalist ...
