Talk:Auteur theory
From Academic Kids
Astruc's 1948 essay ought to be mentioned here. The idea of the camera stylo is a rather obvious precursor to the auter. Deleuze 20:08, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
I hope you don't mind such a complete rewrite; it just happens that I was reading on this subject recently.
Add anything that's missing, but please keep the first sentence, which is from your original--it is THE best brief statement of the auteur position that I've ever seen.
I don't mind at all; I didn't write the original but merely moved it from Auteur Theory Film. I didn't know anything about Auteur theory one way or the other, as film theory tends to bore me. And I do think the article is much better as it is, apologies to the original author....

Proposed merge
I'm not sure a merge of Auteur and Auteur theory is the best idea - Auteur serves a purpose right now, giving a working definition and a list of directors that work with Auteur theory well. -Seth Mahoney 19:26, Apr 3, 2005 (UTC)
