Abstract
the film is a valid form of literature (and, incidentally, to point out the value of their mimeographed textbook Varieties of Modern Drama), they seem to me to have grasped the problem from the wrong end. They lament the paucity of scripts available in print-a lament in which I will cheerfully join-but they overemphasize the importance of approaching the teaching of films through the written word. Toward the end of their article, they admit, almost as an afterthought, the value of audio-visual aids and suggest that i6-mm. films can be employed to excellent purpose. Must be, please, not can be! No study of the film as an art form can really reach the heart of its subject without centering the attention on the film itself.
