doubt it.
so what you really need are monographs about an era or a single director. also there are philosophers who illustrate their concepts with scenes from heir favorite fillems.

That shall be my first wish then .
Specifically anything on Italian cinema like Fellini and De Sica or directors like Tarkovskij and Ejzenstejn . But I'm pretty much open to any recommendations.

Tarkovsky wrote a bretty gud book on filmmaking himself, called 'sculpting in time'. It's opaque, but readable. I wish I could rec you more but I can't, so.... bump.

All you need is to watch and analyse the filmography of David Lynch, Federico Fellini, Stanley Kubrick, Andrei Tarkovsky, Luis Buñuel and Elia Kazan.
