"Anatomy of Film is a concise, jargon-free introduction to film appreciation and analysis. Designed to be used in either English or Communication departments, the highly readable Anatomy of Film helps students new to film develop a critical awareness of cinema. Bernard Dick uses rich examples from the past and present to provide a solid foundation of film fundamentals."
