"I need to not read this book before bed: last night I went down a rabid hole of trying to figure out if I had a copy of Christian Metz's writing from On Language about semiotics in cinema because of it.
Needless to say, this book takes an academic approach to the material, which I greatly enjoy." — Jul 25, 2026 10:10AM
