Dear list members,

I am preparing a syllabus for a film course titled "Cinema and Realism", in
which I cover aspects of French poetic realism, U.S. film noir, and Italian
neo-realism.   Early in the course I need to convey to students the
fundamental distinctions inhering between such concepts as "realism",
"reality" and "the Real."   I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with an
essay or book that addresses these distinction in a cogent manner -
something that I could excerpt in a course reader without students having to
read an entire textbook?   I'd be grateful for any citations that come to
mind.

Thanking you in advance! Angelica Fenner
