Abstract

Film analysis, or cinema critique, is a significant area of research within the subject of humanities. Its main objective is to offer insights and recommendations to film producers by analyzing outstanding films. Therefore, the utilization of analytical methodologies deserves the attention of academics. In regards to these fundamental logical inquiries, the author discovers that cultural studies, aesthetic studies, and communications studies do not offer a flawless and self-explanatory solution. In his book “The Quotation of Film Phenomena,” Wang explores both the content of the movie and offers a framework for comprehending the aforementioned question, namely through the examination of film phenomenology.
