Deleuze and Lola Montes

Gilles Deleuze represents the most widely referenced theorist of cinema today. And yet, even the most rudimentary pillars of his thought remain mysterious to most students (and even many scholars) of film studies.

From one of the foremost theorists following Deleuze in the world today, Deleuze and Lola Montès offers a detailed explication of Gilles Deleuze's writings on film – from his books Cinema 1: The Movement-Image (1983) and Cinema 2: The Time-Image (1985). Building on this foundation, Rushton provides an interpretation of Max Ophuls's classic film Lola Montès as an example of how Deleuzian film theory can function in the practice of film interpretation.

Gilles Deleuze reprezinta cel mai larg referit teoretician al cinematografiei de astazi. Si totusi, chiar si cei mai rudimentari stalpi ai gandului sau raman misteriosi pentru majoritatea studentilor (si chiar pentru multi carturari) ai studiilor cinematografice.
