Cataloged from PDF version of article.In this work, cinema has been investigated philosophically through the ideas of Henri
Bergson and Gilles Deleuze, who uses Bergson’s ideas as a basis in his cinema books
The Time-Image and The Movement-Image. To clarify the effect of Bergson in
Deleuze’s works, a detailed account of Bergsonian philosophy has been investigated.
After stating Bergson’s philosophy, the trace of his philosophical terms are revealed in
Deleuze’s cinema books, and thereby a critique of Deleuze’s Bergsonian approach has
been developed by pointing out that Deleuze does not consider Bergson’s philosophical
terms, which are efficient enough to consider cinema philosophically, and implants his
own concepts into Bergsonian approach.Salman, SeldaM.S
