Published by Ivy Press, 30-Second Cinema offers up 50 key topics in the world of film, from the early days of silent movies, through glossy musicals and Soviet montage, to science fiction and digital filmmaking.
Written by expert film critics (Sight & Sound contributors included), and edited by Pamela Hutchinson, the book offers an immersion course, served up in neat, entertaining shorts. Each subject is summarised in just 30 seconds, using 300 words to tell the stories of the genres, techniques, directors and stars who have helped shaped cinema history.
We have five copies to give away.
The competition closes on Thursday 9 May 2019 and is open to UK residents only.
