Overview
One of the greatest film critics of his generation, Serge Daney wrote for Cahiers du CinĆ©ma before becoming a journalist for the daily newspaper LibĆ©ration. The writings collected in this volume reflect Daneyās evolving interests, from the auteur approach of the French New Wave to a more structural examination of film, psychoanalysis, and popular culture. Openly gay throughout his lifetime, Daney rarely wrote explicitly about homosexuality but his writings reflect a queer sensibility that would influence future generations. In regular intellectual exchanges with Gilles Deleuze, FĆ©lix Guattari, and Roland Barthes, Daney wrote about cinema autobiographically, while lyrically analyzing the transition from modern cinema to postmodern media. A noted polymath, Daney also published books about tennis and Haitiās notorious Duvalier regime. His criticism is open and challenging, polyvocal and compulsively readable.
