بخش اول که نگاه نظری به فیلم فاوندبوتج است بد نیست و فیلم‌های خوبی را هم معرفی می‌کند که البته بخشی از آن برای تماشا پیدا نمی‌شود. اما بخش دوم که مصاحبه با فیلمسازان فاوندفوتج بود، حقیقتن برایم جذابتر بود

An historical account of the found footage film. One of the first books trying to categorize and theorize the genre. Good insights on the found footage as collage and the importance of montage. Also has some testimonies by known practitioners (such as Bruce Conner).

More an essay + a few conversational notes + a filmography than a book proper, the kind of thing I’d almost have expected to be anthologized in a larger volume.
