The Fright of Real Tears: Krzystof Kieslowski between Theory and Post-Theory

Slavoj Zizek (Birkbeck Institute for Humanities, University of London, UK; New York University, USA; University of Ljubljana, Slovenia)

In this study the author challenges both cognitivist-historicist accounts of cinema and conventional film-theory, arguing that the reading of Lacan operative in the 1970s and 1980s was particularly reductive. This work is the elaborated version of a series of lectures Zizek gave to the BFI in 1998.
