The writings collected in this volume reflect Daney's evolving interests, from the auteur approach of the French New Wave to a more structural examination of film, psychoanalysis, and popular culture. Openly gay throughout his lifetime, Daney rarely wrote explicitly about homosexuality but his writings reflect a queer sensibility that would influence future generations. In regular intellectual exchanges with Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, and Roland Barthes, Daney wrote about cinema autobiographically, while lyrically analyzing the transition from modern cinema to postmodern media. A noted polymath, Daney also published books about tennis and Haiti's notorious Duvalier regime. His criticism is open and challenging, polyvocal and compulsively readable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-listen-to-a-clip\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-also-in-series\"\u003e\n\u003ca name=\"#alsoinseries\" id=\"alsoinseries\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"slot series-also-in 9781584351115 isbn-related show\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-series-also-in\" id=\"in-series\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ICA Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57506281095552,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/4390\/6109\/files\/614N0L7QKBL._SY522.jpg?v=1772460175","url":"https:\/\/shop.ica.art\/products\/serge-daney-footlights-copy","provider":"ICA Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
