"This is a useful presentation of past and current theories about the soundtrack and the role sound plays in film." -- K. George, CHOICE, "This is a useful presentation of past and current theories about the soundtrack and the role sound plays in film." -- K. George, CHOICE"This study is astonishing for the amount of film theory it traverses and makes compelling. Its methodology is remarkable, especially in the way it moves both chronologically and topically through film theory while carefully keeping the discussion of film sound and film music completely grounded within the larger theoretical frameworks in which they appear. Buhler's mastery of the subject allows him to explain complex theories with clarity and precision, butalso to make sophisticated and illuminating comparisons between them. This book makes film theory not only immanently approachable for film sound and music scholars alike, but also absolutely essential.""James Buhler provides an excellent overview of Anglo-American, Soviet, German, and French accounts of the film soundtrack. He cuts through the jargon, with clear and sophisticated explanations that also allow us to see each theory in a wider intellectual context. For those interested in screen music, this will surely become a must-read.", This study is astonishing for the amount of film theory it traverses and makes compelling. Its methodology is remarkable, especially in the way it moves both chronologically and topically through film theory while carefully keeping the discussion of film sound and film music completely grounded within the larger theoretical frameworks in which they appear. Buhlers mastery of the subject allows him to explain complex theories with clarity and precision, but also tomake sophisticated and illuminating comparisons between them. This book makes film theory not only immanently approachable for film sound and music scholars alike, but also absolutely essential.

Amazing price for this book which was described as used, but like new, and indeed arrived in perfect condition. Item description was spot on and in fact this book could have been sold as new. Fast shipping as well. This was a rather heavy art book and the seller did a great job of packing it securely so that it arrived in perfect condition and free of damage. Well done and I would absolutely buy again from this seller.

The SFPL Friends are the Platonic ideal of eBay sellers: great stuff, sensible pricing, top notch communications, Flash-like shipping speed and excellent packing of items. This is the second item that I've gotten from them, and they're the only seller I have saved in my searches. Whoever is running their outfit knows what they doing. A++
