Since I misplaced the original message of the instructor who
requested a recommendation for a text on film analysis, here goes mine to
the whole net, with regrets for the noise.
David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson. FILM ART. AN INTRODUCTION. New York:
McGraw-Hill, Inc., 1993. Fourth edition. (There may be a later one.)
I hope this helps. Let me know when you take a look at it.
