Book Synopsis
A study of film acting that challenges the belief that great cinematic performances are created in the editing room. Surveying the changing attitudes and practices of film acting, it argues that screen acting is a vital component of film and that it can be understood in the same way as theatrical performance.

Trade Review
A significant contribution to the literature on screen performance studies, Reframing Screen Performance brings the study of film acting up to date. It should be of interest to those within cinema studies as well as general readers. - Frank P. Tomasulo, Florida State University
