The first volume of Gilles Deleuze's landmark philosophical study of the art of film, now available in the Bloomsbury Revelations series.
Gilles Deleuze was one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century philosophy, well known for his works on the philosophy of art and for his masterworks, Difference and Repetition and—with Felix Guattari—A Thousand Plateaus and Anti-Oedipus.
Cinema I is the first volume of Deleuze’s revolutionary work on the theory of cinema (concluded in Cinema II, also available in the Bloomsbury Revelations series). Drawing on the philosophy of Henri Bergson, Deleuze identified his work as “a logic of the cinema”, setting out to “isolate certain cinematographic concepts” philosophically. To do this, he brings together diverse examples from a variety of major filmmakers, including Ingmar Bergman, Charlie Chaplin, Sergei Eisenstein and Alfred Hitchcock, among many others.

Cinema I by Gilles Deleuze is appreciated as a philosophical exploration of cinema, rather than traditional film criticism. The book delves into how cinema reshapes our perception of time and movement, offering insights into semiotics and the ideological role of representational media. It contrasts pre-World War II cinema with post-World War II transformations, providing readers with tools to understand cinema beyond just a sequence of images, encouraging a deeper philosophical engagement.
