The Fright of Real Tears

- Krzystof Kieslowski between Theory and Post-Theory

About The Fright of Real Tears

In this study the author challenges both cognitivist-historicist accounts of cinema and conventional film-theory, arguing that the reading of Lacan operative in the 1970s and 1980s was particularly reductive. This work is the elaborated version of a series of lectures Zizek gave to the BFI in 1998.
