A sustained theoretical reevaluation of ³film languages,² both visual and
verbal.

John Mowitt investigates the relationship between postcoloniality, national
identity, ideology, and filmmaking. Using bilingualism and the concept of
foreign film language, Re-takes pushes film studies beyond both linguistics
and psychoanalysis to resituate it within the networks of global cultural
communication. Mowitt challenges film studies to reflect on the relation
between its organizing analytical distinctions and its position within
globalization.
³Re-takes offers fascinating and provocative close analysis. It will
revitalize discussions of 'Third Cinema.'² ‹Sharon Willis
