Using contemporary film theory and elements of socio-cultural and political discourse, fourteen geographers examine the effects of cinematic representation of place and space on perceptions of self and societies in the world.
A powerful examination of how movies . . . present and reveal the world and how we see and read the presentation. Geographers should make a useful contribution to the overall scholarship of film study.
