KeramidasAn excellent survey of cinematic modenism as it developed in the second half of the twentieth century. For a work of such scope; it manages to give its compoment parts the detail and depth they deserve.7 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Indispensible work for film buffsBy Judit SzepessyKovacs Andras Balint is a renowned film critc in his homeland. MOdernism in art cinema is his expertise. We can see the fruits of the sophisticated knowledge he amassed throughout his career. Personally; I liked how he paints a thorough background introduction in terminology and cinematography. Besides this; the author provides thorough analysis of major trends; directors and movies. He chose a very influential period to dissect: these years were the formative years of movie making and evergreen films were made. Kovacs Andras Balints work; in scope and thoroughness; lives up to the importance of his subject matter. He deals with the different trends by comparing and contrasting them.I can mention only one point I think the book lacks (and a couple of other reviews mention this): the author could have made a deeper explanation (compare and contrast) of the trend that followed modernism: postmodernism in movie making. I would love to read a book on postmodernism by Kovacs Andras Balint!
