AB - <p>abstract:</p><p><i>This article investigates the engagement of the modernist avant-garde with film in the 1930s. It offers a radical reassessment through study of the journal</i> Life and Letters To-Day. <i>It argues that from 1935 this journal sought a wider audience and incorporated film to a wider culture. The journal continued the project of the journal</i> Close Up, <i>with the same patronage and many of the same contributors. This article shows that ideas about the earlier positions adopted in</i> Close Up <i>may be misconceived and illustrate how ideas about key 1930s innovations—sound, color, editing and television—evolved between the journals</i>.</p>
