Matthew Flisfeder introduces readers to
key concepts in postmodern theory and demonstrates how it can be used for a
critical interpretation and analysis of Blade Runner, arguably 'the greatest science fiction
film'. By contextualizing the film within the culture of late 20th and early
21st-century capitalism, Flisfeder provides a valuable guide for both students
and scholars interested in learning more about one of the most significant,
influential, and controversial concepts in film and cultural studies of the
past 40 years.
The "Film Theory in Practice" series fills a gaping hole in the world of film
theory. By marrying the explanation of film theory with interpretation of a
film, the volumes provide discrete examples of how film theory can serve as the
basis for textual analysis. Postmodern
Theory and Blade Runner offers a concise introduction to Postmodernism in
jargon-free language and shows how this theory can be deployed to interpret
Ridley Scott's cult film Blade
Runner.
