In the field of film history as well, Farocki is a precise analyst. It is hard to ignore his astounding observations and accurate conclusions. Again in this actor’s biography, Farocki places more trust in visual images, which he comments on in only a few short sentences, so that they can then speak for themselves, and yet with this carefully balanced context he gives them a previously unimagined depth and significance.
