Viac o knihe

The book explores the interplay between narrative film and reality through classical concert performances depicted on screen. It reveals how these performances highlight music's significance to the essence of film, arguing that narrative cinema creates its own unique reality rather than merely reflecting everyday life. By examining concert scenes, the author discusses the complex relationships between real musicians and fictional narratives, challenging the audience's suspension of disbelief and suggesting a new perspective on music's role in shaping shared experiences between viewers and characters.
