N2 - Four particularly important books of film theory were published in 2012, two by established scholars in film—Miriam Bratu Hansen and Thomas Elsaesser—along with two timely collections of essays by twentieth-century theorists, Siegfried Kracauer and Georg Lukács, with the latter collection featuring an excellent commentary by Ian Aitken. The chapter is divided into four sections: 1. Cinema and Experience; 2. Siegfried Kracauer’s American Writings; 3. Lukácsian Film Theory; 4. The Persistence of Hollywood.
