This book argues that philosophy and film can and should be used for the amelioration of life's difficulties and the promotion of life's boons. Gilmore identifies how philosophy and film complement and enrich one another and explores their relationship by connecting classic wisdom texts to significant movies. For example, the volume analyzes the Coen brothers' films The Big Lebowski and A Serious Man in light of The Book of Job. Gilmore considers the ancient idea of philosophy as "spiritual exercise" and a way of life. The volume concludes by examining what the author labels "sublime conversations" as the highest expression of philosophy. The book identifies and dissects these conversations in movies directed by the likes of Robert Bresson, Yasujirō Ozu, Jean-Luc Godard, and Ingmar Bergman, among others. 001378105 588__ $$aPrint version record. 001378105 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$xPhilosophy. 001378105 650_0 $$aPhilosophy in motion pictures. 001378105 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001378105 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tSearching for Wisdom in Movies.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : Palgrave Macmillan 2016$$z9783319398945$$w(OCoLC)950953745 001378105 852__ $$bebk 001378105 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-39895-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001378105 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1378105$$pGLOBAL_SET 001378105 980__ $$aBIB 001378105 980__ $$aEBOOK 001378105 982__ $$aEbook 001378105 983__ $$aOnline 001378105 994__ $$a92$$bISE
