Abstract
The chapter discusses entangled film history as a methodological framework for exploring the interactions between Danish and German cinema in the silent period. Entangled film history is an adaptation to film of histoire croisée or entangled history, and the chapter traces the development of the concept as well as its relation to related concepts like transnational film history. The chapter argues that entangled film history is a useful concept because it provides (a) a corrective to methodological nationalism without making it an exclusive concern; (b) a better handle om the downsides of transnational entanglements; (c) a way of discussing the crossing of boundaries between film and other art forms; and (d) a pragmatic grounding in the sources rather than preestablished theoretical frameworks.
