The mise en scène in the cinema: from the classic to flow cinema

Abstract

The result of the research carried out for a master's thesis, Mise en scène na cinema: from the classic to the cinema of flow (2013), by Luiz Carlos Oliveira Junior, ended up becoming reference work for those who want to understand the transformations that cinema has undergone since Its classic manifestation up to the concept of flow, which contaminated a certain production from the 1990s. Starting from the idea of mise en scène and the perspective of French criticism, especially from the renowned journal Cahiers du Cinéma, the author performs a meticulous work of the pursuit of texts that take account of this concept that, ultimately, shapes what the films are made of.
