"Beginning with the simple but possibly crucial observation that, in general, literature and film are storytelling arts, the author shows how a film consciousness sharpend the reader's alertness to the visual and aural qualities that mark much great writing, and literary training, in turn adds depth and perspective to appreciation of film. He goes on to present some of the literary influences that have significantly affected film since the era of D. W. Griffith, and he discusses film's major influences on modern literature.
