In 1936, Samuel Beckett wrote a letter to the Soviet film director Sergei Eisenstein expressing a desire to work in the lost tradition of silent film. The production of Beckett's Film in 1964, on the cusp of his work as a director for stage and screen, coincides with a widespread revival of silent film in the period of cinema's modernist second wave. Drawing on recently published letters, archival material and production notebooks, Samuel Beckett and Cinema is the first book to examine comprehensively the full extent of Beckett's engagement with cinema and its influence on his work for stage and screen. The book situates Beckett within the context of first and second wave modernist filmmaking, including the work of figures such as Vertov, Keaton, Lang, Epstein, Flaherty, Dreyer, Godard, Bresson, Resnais, Duras, Rogosin and Hitchcock. By examining the parallels between Beckett's methods, as a writer-director, and particular techniques, such as the embodied presence of the camera, the use of asynchronous sound, and the cross-pollination of theatricality and cinema, as well as the connections between his collaborators and the nouvelle vague, the book reveals how Beckett's aesthetic is fundamentally altered by his work for the screen, and his formative encounters with modernist film culture.

Samuel Beckett's short play Play / Comédie and his only film Film were written around the same time (1962-1963). They both have self-referential titles that invite meditation on the genres they represent. Although medium-specific opportunities and challenges underlie their very different geneses, they have influenced each other in terms of both form and content. In more ways than one, Film continues where Play left off. Whereas in Play the genesis shows a steady increase in speech tempo to the point of near unintelligibility, the silent Film radically eliminates speech from the outset. Conversely, the cinematic element is also clearly present in Play, notably in the crucial role assigned to the light beam as the mechanical, mindless inquisitor. Both works are grounded in technology and rely heavily on explanatory notes for the members of their production teams, thus exposing the inherently collaborative nature of such projects. The genetic critical analysis of the manuscripts of Play / Comédie and Film not only contributes to the interpretation of each work separately but also considers the two works together through the prism of Beckett's multimedial authorship.

Film es la unica incursion de Samuel Beckett en el cine. Escrita en 1963, se rodo en Nueva York durante el verano de 1964; la dirigio Alan Schneider y la protagonizo Buster Keaton. Para el rodaje, Beckett realizo su unico viaje a los Estados Unidos, en julio de 1964.La pelicula no tiene dialogos y solo un sonido -un ligero "B!sssh !" -, parte de la teoria de Berkeley "Esse est percipi," o sea "ser es ser percibido": aun cuando se suprime toda percepcion exterior -ya sea esta animal, humana o divina- permanece la auto-percepcion. Sin embargo, pese a este principio filosofico, la pelicula, como toda la obra de Beckett, contiene elementos de comedia. Buster Keaton desempena el papel de un hombre que, huyendo por una calle practicamente desierta, se introduce en un portal, sube por las escaleras del edificio y entra en una habitacion -probablemente la suya-, donde cuidadosamente borra toda realidad exterior. Corre la cortina, tapa el espejo, echa al gato y al perro, cierra con llave la puerta, cubre la jaula del pajaro y la pecera y empieza a romper las fotos de su pasado. Sin embargo, el problema de la auto-percepcion sigue insoluble.
