EMPATHETIC SPACE ON SCREEN - AMEDEO DADAMO KART...

In this book we learn that there is a clear but complex relationship between setting and
character on screen. Certain settings stand out above others-think of the iconic gooey dripping
tunnels that Ripley stumbles through in Aliens  Norman's bird-decorated parlour in Psycho or
the dark Gotham of certain Batman movies. But what makes these particular settings so powerful
and iconic? Amedeo D'Adamo explains why we care about and cry for certain characters  and then
focuses on how certain places then become windows onto their emotional lives. Using popular
case studies such as Apocalypse Now  Amelie  Homeland and The Secret Garden  this original and
insightful book is the first to really explain what makes some settings so effective  revealing
an important but as yet uncovered machinery of empathy in visual narrative space. An invaluable
resource for students  academics and indeed young filmmakers designing their very own
narratives for space on screen.
