Abstract

Abstract: Gilles Deleuze and Alain Badiou have different philosophical foundations constructed their own theories of cinema and applied them into the analyses of cinematic works. One of their intersections of analysis falls on Wim Wenders' False Movement. Through a comparative study of their analyses of the film, the paper tries to arrive at a deeper understanding of both philosophers' theory of cinema and a general survey of their similarities and differences. Through the analysis, the paper also hopes to expose the problem of the relationship of philosophy and cinema.

Key words: time-image, movement-image, event, idea, philosophy of cinema
