ABSTRACT
mainly in the work of avant-garde film-makers, and Brunetta and Costa (1990) discuss the more general representation of cities in film, although again mainly in the work of modernists such as Ruttmann, Cavalcanti, Dziga Vertov (see also Michelson, 1985), Man Ray, Moholy Nagy and Richter. Niney (1994) discusses the cinematic representation of ‘real’ cities such as Paris, Berlin, London, Rome and Prague as well as such cities of the imagination as Tativille’—the urban space constructed in the films of Jacques Tati.
