The text discusses the concept of "medium specificity" in film theory, which suggests that each medium has its unique characteristics and limitations that cannot be replicated by any other medium. However, the author argues that this approach is insufficient for evaluating films as it neglects the purpose-driven nature of film evaluation. The author proposes a "purpose-driven" approach to film evaluation, which considers factors such as narrative coherence, emotional impact, and thematic resonance in addition to technical aspects of film. The author argues that this approach provides a more comprehensive understanding of films as artistic expressions and avoids the limitations of the medium specificity approach.The text highlights several limitations of the medium specificity approach, including:1. Neglecting the purpose-driven nature of film evaluation: Films are not simply vehicles for showcasing technical achievements, but also tools for conveying emotions, ideas, and experiences.2. Leading to a narrow focus on technical aspects of film at the expense of other important factors such as content and meaning.3. Being overly prescriptive and limiting in terms of what constitutes "good" filmmaking.The author argues that by prioritizing purpose-driven evaluation, we can provide a more complete and nuanced understanding of films as artistic expressions. The text concludes that a balance between the two perspectives is necessary to evaluate films comprehensively.
