Film Language: A Semiotics of the Cinema

[spine slightly turned, minor shelfwear, some random ink underlining and margin notes on a few pages in the middle of the book, previous owner's name at top of front endpaper; the jacket is rubbed and scuffed, and has tiny bits of paper loss at the spine corners]. "A pioneering attempt to apply the insights of structural linguistics to an area -- film -- which has a definite language of its own. [This book is] the first English translation of 'Essais sur la signification au cinema,' which was originally published in France in 1968 and has now been translated into five languages." (They can translate it as much as they want -- it's still the sort of thing that sent me screaming out of film school back in the day.)
