Pere Portabella: hacia una política del relato cinematográfico (review)

The volume's essays undoubtedly aim to fulfill the objectives proposed in the book's introduction but a number of tangents, which veer precariously off topic (see references to shock sculpture and The Sopranos, pages 80 and 283-84 respectively), provide little more than distractions to Hernandez's larger project. [...]the presence of an index would have been of great service given not only the book's highly digressive nature but also the author's bibliographic omission of several sources cited throughout the book (Giorgio Agamben, Dante Alighieri, Ricciotto Canudo, Immanuel Kant, Jaime Pena, and Glauber Rocha).
