The film explores themes of moral decay, human darkness, and the blurred lines between good and evil, making it one of the most acclaimed films of the 1990s. Richard Dyer's study of the film unpacks how its cinematography, sound, and plot combine to create a harrowing account of a world beset by an all-encompassing, irremediable wickedness. He explores the film in terms of sin, story, structure, seriality, sound, sight, and salvation, analyzing how \"Seven\" both epitomizes and modifies the serial killer genre, which is such a feature of recent cinema. This new edition includes a new afterword by the author, re-assessing the film's lasting impact and influence over contemporary filmmaking aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 156g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 189 x 137 x 8 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781839027437\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RichardDyer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46233855918330,"sku":"9781839027437","price":10.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1718385444941_book.jpg?v=1718437276","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/seven-9781839027437","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
