In extending the scope of Cavell’s film philosophy, we naturally find ourselves contending with it and amending it, as the case may be. Through a series of interpretive vignettes, the group effort situates, for the expert and novitiate alike, how Cavell’s writing on film can profitably enrich one’s experience of cinema generally and also inform how we might continue the practice of serious philosophical criticism of specific films mindful of his sensibility. The resulting conversations between texts, traditions, disciplines, genres, and generations creates propitious conditions for discovering what it means to watch and listen to movies with Stanley Cavell in mind. 1 2022 9781501351945 9781501380167 Bloomsbury Publishing Plc 10.5040/9781501351945 https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/movies-with-stanley-cavell-in-mind https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/movies-with-stanley-cavell-in-mind https://www.screenstudies.com/encyclopedia?docid=b-9781501351945 Sandra Laugier The Importance of Stanley Cavell for the Study of Film 2022 xiii xvii 10.5040/9781501351945.0004 https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/monograph-detail?docid=b-9781501351945&tocid=b-9781501351945-Foreword https://www.screenstudies.com/encyclopedia-chapter?docid=b-9781501351945&tocid=b-9781501351945-Foreword https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/monograph-detail?docid=b-9781501351945&tocid=b-9781501351945-Foreword
