  Argues that the experience of cinema can be understood as deeply tactile - a sensuous exchange between film and viewer that goes beyond the visual and aural, gets beneath the skin, and reverberates in the body. This title combines analysis of embodiment and phenomenological film theory to provide a description of cinematic tactility.
