Christopher Carter Metafilm Hardcover sku-893149486
No rating yet(0 ratings)In Metafilm: Materialist Rhetoric and Reflexive Cinema, Christopher Carter examines films that draw viewers into violent narratives while questioning the ethics of that engagement. He discusses works by Michael Haneke, Atom Egoyan, Icíar Bollaín, Paul Thomas Anderson and Ryan Coogler.
The book considers personal conflict alongside warfare, transnational economics, labor exploitation and racism, across films depicting subjects from genocide to police brutality. Carter argues that these films reflect on how they are made, distributed and watched. He describes their approach as reflexive materialism and examines how they can prompt resistance during and after viewing.
He also considers how the films invite viewers to identify with onscreen worlds, then challenge their expectations. This hardcover is listed under Performing Arts Books. SKU: sku-893149486.
