In Robert Pippin’s article “The Bearing of Film on Philosophy,” he argues that some narrative films (those of great “ambition”) might “illuminate” or “intimate” something of “general, philosophical significance” (pp. 535, 536). [1] Explain what Pippin means by “illumination” or “intimation,” and explain what sort of things he means by things of “general, philosophical significance.” [2] Consider one of the films we watched in class in light of Pippin’s claim.
