The Moving Form of Film: Historicizing the Medium through Other Media explores the profound ways in which traversing boundaries between film and other arts and media offers a comprehensive, inclusive, and non-teleological perspective on the history of cinema. Traditional narratives of cinema have often framed the Second World War as a pivotal moment that distinguishes classical Hollywood films from modern European productions, thereby imposing a hegemonic cinematic history on the global audience. In turn, histories of film as a technological medium have emphasized cinema's distinctiveness as it gradually distanced itself from other art and media forms, including theater, dance, fairground spectacles, painting, literature, still photography, and other pre-cinematic modes. Taking a bold step forward in this realm, this book delves into the dynamic nature of the film form by examining a diverse range of exciting and often overlooked artistic expressions across temporal, geographical, and cultural boundaries. By closely observing the interplay between film's contours and those of other artistic and medial expressions, the chapters aim to establish a flexible historical framework for the moving form of film, positioned as a transformative and transformative medium, spanning from its production to its consumption.
