Abstract

In this article a general three dimensional model of filmanalysis is presented: a socio-cultural dimension, an aesthetic dimension and a psychological-reception dimension. Focusing on the two last dimensions four aesthetic prototypes are defined related to either fiction or non-fiction, narrative or non-narrative formats: the avantgarde prototype, the realististic prototype, the narrative genre-prototype and the documentary prototype. Drawing on cognitive theories of schemata in different domains and an aesthetic-psychological model of basic filmic structures aspect of mental
and emotional activities during film reception is discussed. At the end of the article the usefulness of the theoretical framework and the analytical concepts are demonstrated in three very different films by Peter Weir, Bille August and Lars von Trier.
