THE WORLD BECOMES A DREAM

Network Three
on Network Three

tThe second of two talks on the cinema
PAUL MAYERSBERG discusses Novalis' sentence ' the world becomes a dream and the dream becomes a world ' as a definition of the manner in which the cinema transforms the subjects it treats. He analyses Otto Preminger 's film The Cardinal to illustrate in detail how the naturalism of the film medium is closely related to its preoccupation with fantasy.
