Flaherty's Nanook of the North , Antonioni's Eclipse , Ford's My Darling Clementine , Godard's Breathless . Perez's frame-by-frame analysis of them is always lucid and invigorating, reminding us why these films were considered classics from the first. Even better, Perez takes up lesser known films and filmmakers... The eclectic mixture of films is one the book's strengths, allowing Perez to write on a breadth of topics... Despite holding films to a high standard, Perez never comes off as a film snob; his readings remain rooted in a genuine and communicable love for the cinema., Perez's book may strike some readers as anachronistic because it is about nothing but the author's love of movies, its pleasure lying in the sheer intensity of his intelligence. In so far as this wonderfully flexible and expansive thinker has a thesis, it's that the illusionist medium of cinema is endlessly poised between reality and abstraction... Brilliantly polemical in his critique of cynical reason ('the official philosophy of late capitalism'), no less passionate in defending the truth-value of cinema, Perez seems to be the clearest heir to the great humanist critic André Bazin., "Flaherty's Nanook of the North, Antonioni's Eclipse, Ford's My Darling Clementine, Godard's Breathless.

Synopsis
Selected by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title In a recent international survey conducted by the online film journal Screening the Past , which invited film critics and scholars around the world to nominate the most important contributions to the field in the past decade, The Material Ghost tied for first place with Jean-Luc Godard's Histoire(s) du Cinéma . Gilberto Perez draws on his lifelong love of the movies as well as his work as a film scholar to write a lively, wide-ranging, penetrating study of films and filmmakers and the nature of the art form., Tough, smart, superbly engaging, The Material Ghost is a terrific book. - Edward W. Said In The Material Ghost, Gilberto Perez draws on his lifelong love of the movies as well as his work as a film scholar to write a lively, wide-ranging, penetrating study of films and filmmakers and the nature of the art form. For Perez, film is complex and richly contradictory, lifelike and dreamlike at once, a peculiar mix of reality and imagination. The images on the screen, he writes, carry in them something of the world itself, something material, and yet something transposed, transformed into another world: the material ghost. Dazzling . . . The sheer intelligence at work in these lucid pages is exhilarating. -Alfred Guzzetti, Boston Book Review A pleasure. Gilberto Perez is one of the smartest film critics writing anywhere. Jonathan Rosenbaum Strikes an ideal balance between insightful analysis and graceful writing . . . A model of thoughtful criticism. David Sterritt, Christian Science Monitor Brilliantly polemical in his critique of cynical reason (the official philosophy of late capitalism), no less passionate in defending the truth-value of cinema, Perez seems to be the clearest heir to the great humanist critic André Bazin. Sight and Sound The chapters on Keaton and Renoir are stunning, full of perceptive remarks; the chapter on Godard is a persuasive rehabilitation; none of the chapters is without memorable insights. Michael Wood, London Review of Books Gilberto Perezs ambitious, abundant, and cultivated book--the fruit of decades of thinking and teaching-accompanies readers on a journey of discovery into the wonder of film. Stanley Cavell Few books of film criticism in the past twenty-five years have been so enjoyable or instructive . . .
