Recenzii
An important book ... Refreshingly international in its references and framework. The book is at its best when it is engaged in close textual analysis informed by Bresson's modèle ... Rich in theoretical scope.
A much-needed stepping-stone in the unblurring of lines between documentary, nonfiction, and nonfiction film.
[Waldron] is a perceptive analyst, engaging closely with the discursive organisation of his chosen texts and the experience of viewing them, while showing a lively interest in bringing wide-ranging ideas to bear.
It is rare these days that a book delivers a new critical concept and category that completely transforms our understanding of cinema, but that's precisely what Dara Waldron does in New Nonfiction Film. Refusing the deadlock between the real and the fictive that has long circumscribed thinking about documentary, Waldron explores contemporary cinematic practices that seek truth by way of fiction. Through a series of revelatory readings of films by John Akomfrah, Chantal Akerman, Abbas Kiarostami, Pat Collins, and Ben Rivers, among others, Waldron's New Nonfiction Film identifies a poetics of the moving image that defines the boldest examples of contemporary filmmaking
Waldron's book offers a much needed contribution to the study of documentary as art. He explores the poetics of documentary by focusing on its outliers-art forms and experimentations-that have much to offer the ways we think about the changing nature of nonfiction film. New Nonfiction Film: Art, Poetics and Documentary Theory provides an important and lucid reference point in the expanding terrain of documentary studies and is the product of a deep engagement with a range of filmmakers and their work.
New Nonfiction Film explores the work of Chantal Akerman, John Akomfrah, and Abbas Kiarostami, among other boundary-pushing artists and directors. Combining close analysis with philosophical speculation, Dara Waldron shows how a growing number of films are orbiting the categories of both fiction and documentary, yet resisting the gravitational pull of each, in search of new trajectories. Questions of ethics, aesthetics, knowledge, and subjectivity all come to bear in this valuable contribution to documentary studies.
