Table of ContentsReviews"""Trevor Mowchun's extraordinary new book shines new light on our understanding of things far more basic than film, including experience, consciousness, perception, and reality. An extremely stylish and engaging author, Mowchun takes us on a tour of his own deepest concerns and passions, compels us to share them, and tells us something new about ourselves and the cinematic experiences we have had our whole lives, and which we now see we have failed to examine to their very depths."" -Justin E.H. Smith, University of Paris" Author InformationTrevor Mowchun is Assistant Professor and Director of Film and Media Studies at University of Florida. His scholarly essays and criticism have appeared in Film International, New Review of Film and Television Studies, Cineaction, Evental Aesthetics, and Senses of Cinema.
