Warren is right to point out the difference between Spottiswoode and
Metz. But I must strongly oppose his willingness to add 'language' to
the list that includes "terms such as 'movement', 'point of view',
'camera', 'frame', and 'causality'". I'm sorry, but it is simply silly
to put 'camera' or 'point of view' at the same level as 'language'. And
I really don't see anything specifically "Wittgensteinian" in
Brannigan's analyses of certain concepcts concerning film practice
and/or theory - be it literal or metaphorical. I don't have Brannigan's
book at hand at the moment, but I don't even remember him mentioning
Wittgenstein.
