ABSTRACT

When applied to the optical recording of sound all these methods can, if of course they are altered as appropriate, produce remarkable results. The introduction of sound, a new raw material, into the construction of a film has an enormous future. It broadens incredibly the opportunities for deepening cinema language, permitting it to communicate complex abstract concepts to the audience, and in so doing it will lead cinema out of the blind alley that has already been outlined and up which our greatest masters have come to rest.
