Abstract

The article discusses the cinematic thought of film critic Theo Angelopoulos. It states that his legal thought attempts to think not the representation of reality into cinematic images and narrative, but the thinkability of the cinematic image. His strategy emphasizes the key idea that images are capable of conspiring against visual conventions to show the potentiality of cinematic thought. It highlights some films by Angelopoulos which serve as an example of the problem of modernist representation such as "Reconstruction," which involves a crime and a seemingly detective-style plot..
