A lifetime of cinematic writing culminates in this breathtaking statement on films unique ability to move us

Cinema is commonly hailed as the universal language, but how does it communicate so effortlessly across cultural and linguistic borders? In The Eloquent Screen, influential film critic Gilberto Perez makes a capstone statement on the powerful ways in which film acts on our minds and senses.

Drawing on a lifetimes worth of viewing and re-viewing, Perez invokes a dizzying array of masters past and presentincluding Chaplin, Ford, Kiarostami, Eisenstein, Malick, Mizoguchi, Haneke, Hitchcock, and Godardto explore the transaction between filmmaker and audience. He begins by explaining how film fits into the rhetorical tradition of persuasion and argumentation. Next, Perez explores how film embodies the central tropes of rhetoricmetaphor, metonymy, allegory, and synecdocheand concludes with a thrilling account of cinemas spectacular capacity to create relationships of identification with its audiences.

Although there have been several attempts to develop a poetics of film, there has been no sustained attempt to set forth a rhetoric of filmone that bridges aesthetics and audience. Grasping that challenge, The Eloquent Screen shows how cinema, as the consummate contemporary art form, establishes a thoroughly modern rhetoric in which different points of view are brought into clear focus.
