Does the cinema or any other sign system liberate or manipulate us? How can we as spectators know when the media are subtly perpetuating a specific set of values? To address these issues, the author draws from a variety of approaches--Marxism, psycholanalysis, communication theory, semiotics, structuralism, the psychology of perception.
