Cook and Bernink created this edition as a thorough analysis of cinema throughout history. They offer a huge breakdown of Hollywood Cinema, going into details on topics such as Box Office and the big studios of the industry. Alternatives to Hollywood Cinema, national cinemas and film movements of the world were also covered, as well as other aspects of film including authorship and genre. While this piece is thorough in it’s discussion of most aspects of cinema, the comprehensive analytical breakdown of the ‘Odessa Steps’ sequence of Eisenstein’s ‘Battleship Potemkin’ is the most relevant to this research piece. It uses the piece as an example of Eisenstein’s dialectical approach to editing, outlining his ability to elicit a number of specific reactions from an audience through his style of using montage methods, such as precise rhythmic and graphic conflict. While the explanation of montage is brief, the example given is helpful in giving a clearer understanding of Eisenstein’s intentions.
