5. Film and Phil: Bazin on Theater vs. Film - clip of rear window

Published: Feb. 1, 2014, 5:59 p.m.

b"Some open considerations of Bazin. \\xa0Long excursus on lumping vs. splitting. \\xa0A spiel I liked about truth-makers (as in Armstrong, and Davidson, just to give a couple of references. \\xa0Davidson's Tarski-style idea: if a sentence is true, there is something that makes it true). \\xa0All claims that A=B, if not tautological, are not strictly speaking true. \\xa0They need to be made true. \\xa0What makes something true if you lump: A and B are the same. \\xa0What makes something true if you split: A isn't really A. \\xa0Lumping: A is something else that is not A. \\xa0Splitting: A is not A. \\xa0Application to Film vs. Theater vs. verbal narrative vs.... TV. \\xa0Rear Window as emblematizing TV-watching. \\xa0Bazin on identification and resistance to identification in film and theater respectively. \\xa0Subjective camera in Rear Window."
