Review
His readings of film are provocative.
— Mimi White
Marc Ferro argues that film is an "agent and source of history" and offers a comprehensive survey of the conceptual interrelations between cinema and history. In developing his arguments, he provides some dozen models, each focusing on a single film or set of films.
