1.		Awake in the Dark: The Best of Roger Ebert from University Of Chicago Press Price: $12.24 Customer Review: Nice to have a comprehensive retrospective of Ebert's work in a variety of topics and formats. I have enjoyed his reviews, especially in the inclusion of sociological, anthropological, and philosophical observations.

2.		Film Art: An Introduction from McGraw Hill Higher Education Customer Review: After spending 3 years as a film major, I was cornered into the Intro to Film studies class that worked out of this absurdly expensive book. 95% of the material we covered I already understood, but reading them in Film Art and trying to understand what the heck was going on made me want to drop out... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

Film Art: An Introduction with Tutorial CD-ROM from McGraw-Hill Humanities/Social Sciences/Languages Price: $79.87 Customer Review: This book provides wonderful baseline knowledge about process of film making from the fruition of an idea to the completion of a movie and beyond.

5.		The Way Hollywood Tells It: Story and Style in Modern Movies from University of California Press Price: $16.47 Customer Review: I started buying products in Amazon this year and i'm very satisfied with your service.

6.		Narration in the Fiction Film from Routledge Price: $35.95 Customer Review: I used this book for a cinema/media theory seminar as a freshman at Princeton University. It is demanding and just plain difficult at times (I personally found chapter 2 super confusing). However, it achieves its goal: it provides one valuable way to discuss movies - by focusing on the narrative and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		The Classical Hollywood Cinema: Film Style & Mode of Production to 1960 from Columbia University Press Price: $46.35 Customer Review: Probably the only book of this sort; ambitious as it is informative, well written and wide in the scope of research; a true classic in the field of cinema history...

9.		Post-Theory: Reconstructing Film Studies (Wisconsin Studies in Film) from University of Wisconsin Press Price: $22.45 Customer Review: This collection remains relevant and likely will for some time. It is diverse and contains new essays by thoughtful, engaged scholars. Bordwell's particular critique of what he calls Grand Theory remains unconvincing to me, but his argument for a kind of middle theory is appealing. Academic... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Planet Hong Kong: Popular Cinema and the Art of Entertainment from Harvard University Press Price: $31.95 Customer Review: Since John Woo and Jackie Chan hit it big in North America, there have been a ton of books on the Hong Kong film industry. Most of them are either poorly written or poorly presented. Or, worst of all, only focus on the figures (Woo & Chan) that people here in North America would... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		On the History of Film Style from Harvard University Press Price: $31.50 Customer Review: If you're a student of cinema, you will have great use of this book, written by probably most influential film scholar around; his analysis of the film style are equally rewarding as are his comments on the history of cinema studies. Is Bordwell always right, are his claims without doubt?... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

The Cinema of Eisenstein from Routledge Price: $26.95 Customer Review: David Bordwell, Professor of Film Studies at the University of Wisconsin--Madison, has produced as complete and insightful a guide to the cinemagraphic artistry of Sergei Eisenstein as any film lover could hope for.

17.	[no image]	Figures Traced in Light: On Cinematic Staging from University of California Press Price: $65.00 Customer Review: David Bordwell is one of America's most challenging film scholars.
