“For me, film criticism is not a way of explaining or classifying things, it’s a way of prolonging them, making them resonate differently”

Today, Film Studies For Free presents some videos it's been meaning to link to here for an age: a series of very extensive, and very wonderful, masterclasses given by Adrian Martin, Jonathan Rosenbaum and Jacques Rancière in Brussels in 2011.

Their talks, part of the "Goodbye Cinema, Hello Cinephilia" project, explore the status and possibility of cinephilia and film critical thinking. These astonishingly good events took their title from the wonderful 2010 book by Jonathan Rosenbaum.

Below are a few related links, including one to FSFF's mammoth collection of online writing on cinephilia.

How many times can Ranciere say "you know" in this lecture? :-)
