Thinking Through Film is the best introduction to the varied relationship between film and philosophy. Clearly written and convincingly argued, it will benefit students of both film and philosophy.
Cox and Lewin's book argues that films not only do philosophy, but in some cases do it better than philosophers! The result is a rich and rewarding analysis of films—from metaphysical experiments, conundrums of personal identity, to reflections on the meaning of life—that shows in a cheerful, no-nonsense manner how popular cinema can engage in serious philosophy.
The book covers a wide range philosophical questions related to cinema, as well as questions about the nature of cinema itself. Using cinema as a vehicle for philosophizing, the book combines the experience of watching films with an exploration of fundamental philosophical issues. The book offers readers an engaging introduction to philosophy and cinema, and raises philosophical questions about films and the film experience.
