"The Kino is a vulgar modern entertainment and I doubt if it can tell us anything serious about the modern condition" is a dictum attributed to Sigmund Freud by Daniel Frampton in a post[1] in 1996.
Two other quotes were in that post by Frampton:
- 'When I first saw the cinematograph I realised it could offer something new to philosophy. The cinema provides us with an understanding of our own memory. Indeed we could almost say that cinema is a model of consciousness itself. Going to the cinema turns out to be a philosophical experience.' --Henri Bergson
- 'If Descartes lived today, only through the medium of film would he be able to convey to us his Discours de la Methode, because every film, being a dynamic piece of work moving in time, is basically a theorem. It is the locale of the unfolding of an inexorable logic which traverses its own pivotal points, more precisely, the given poles of dialectics.' --Alexandre Astruc
