Features: This book is another significant work on film performance theory by the author, following "On the Art of Modern Film Performance" and "A Study of Modern Film Performance Psychology." From the perspectives of performance art and film, the author uses a comparative approach to delve into the characteristics of performance, the art of performance, film performance, and the art of film performance, proposing that restoring the focus of performance art on humanity is a sign of maturity in the film era. Combining practical performance experience, the author provides an in-depth argument on the individuality of film performance art, introducing a classification of films from the actor's perspective: ability-based films, sensation-based films, and comprehensive films, which offers fresh insights. The book features vivid language and clear, insightful arguments, making it highly instructive and experiential. It is an excellent read for individuals from all walks of life who are passionate about film performance.
