Despite technological advances that allow for the easy creation and distribution of death footage, digital media often fail to live up to their promise to reveal the world in greater fidelity. Malkowski analyzes a wide range of death footage, from feature films about the terminally ill (Dying, Silverlake Life, Sick), to surreptitiously recorded suicides (The Bridge), to #BlackLivesMatter YouTube videos and their precursors. Contextualizing these recordings in the long history of attempts to capture the moment of death in American culture, Malkowski shows how digital media are unable to deliver death "in full detail," as its metaphysical truth remains beyond representation.Documentary filmsProduction and directionMoral and ethical aspectsDocumentary mass mediaDeath in motion picturesDigital cinematographyTechniqueDocumentary filmsProduction and directionMoral and ethical aspects.Documentary mass media.Death in motion pictures.Digital cinematographyTechnique.070.18Malkowski Jennifer1983-893919NDDNDD9910166650003321Dying in full detail1996882UNINA
