Documentary's Awkward Turn: Cringe Comedy and Media Spectatorship - Routledge Research in Cultural and Media Studies 1st edition
Middleton, Jason (University of Rochester, USA)
This book examines disrupted encounters in documentary film and media: encounters between social actors on screen, filmmaker and subject, and film and spectator, which are all often inter-connected. Through its theorization of awkward moments, it develops original approaches to issues of ideology, affect, and ethics in the context of documentary film and spectatorship.
