Exploring the interplay between reality and illusion in cinema, this book delves into the aesthetic experience film offers, likening it to daydreams and dreams. Richard Allen critiques contemporary film theory, arguing that while many theorists recognize the importance of reality's impression, their philosophical interpretations are flawed. The work provides a thorough analysis of key arguments in film criticism while engaging with broader themes in philosophy, art history, and feminist theory, making it a significant contribution to the discourse on visual representation.
