This book sets those films and others in context with earlier works that tried new narrative approaches, including Stage Fright and Hiroshima, Mon Amour, to show how they reveal the limitations of most of our usual tools for analysing film. In light of that, Steffen Hven argues for the deployment of an 'embodied' reconfiguration of the cinematic experience, one that allows us to rethink such core constituents of narrative understanding as cognition, emotion, and affect UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9789048530250?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9789048530250 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9789048530250/original ER -
