Celebrating Decades of Publishing in Film
For decades, Columbia University Press has been at the forefront of film studies, and we were one of the first university presses to have a list in the field. Anchored by the Film and Culture Series, edited by John Belton, our list has featured books that combine critical approaches to cinema and media with archival research in the history of film. From the textbook Film Studies to prize-winning works in film history to important interventions in film theory, our books demonstrate and explain the central role cinema has played in shaping our world.
