McGinn explores some interesting ideas about the way our minds connect with movies as though they were dreams. The book analyzes several implications of the theory, and provoked thought about the importance of both ways of thinking. Nothing earth-shattering, but still worth a read. ( ) McGinn examines the experience of watching film, and compares and contrasts it with other visual storytelling media such as live theatre and television,and with dreaming. He concludes that movie watching is most comparable to dreaming in many aspects. He explores how the interaction of how our minds work and the mechanism of how movies work combine to make the unique "movie experience" what it is. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
How is watching a movie similar to dreaming? What goes on in our minds when we become absorbed in a movie? How does looking “into” a movie screen allow us to experience the thoughts and feelings of a movie’s characters? These and related questions are at the heart of The Power of Movies, a thoughtful, invigorating, and remarkably accessible book about a phenomenon seemingly beyond reach of our understanding. Colin McGinn–“an ingenious philosopher who thinks like a laser and writes like a dream,” according to Steven Pinker–enhances our understanding of both movies and ourselves in this book of rare and refreshing insight.
