How do we experience theatre through film? Laura Sava critically engages with the filmic representation of theatre, focusing on a selection of art house and independent films which provide a sophisticated commentary on the interaction between the two media. Through an in-depth analysis of films such as Jacques Rivette’s L’Amour fou, Pedro Almodóvar’s All About My Mother and Charlie Kaufman’s Synecdoche, New York, this book analyses the embedment of theatre in film and the notion of spectatorial address. Using textual analysis in conjunction with concepts derived from narratology, performance philosophy, and film and theatre phenomenology, it explores the mechanisms of representation involved in the intermedial diegetisation of theatre in film.
Dr Laura Sava is Assistant Professor of Film Studies at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China. She is the author of Theatre Through the Camera Eye (2019, EUP).
