Mohamed Fawzy.-SAT & ACT English The selection of these photographic stills, plucked from films and enlarged to architectural proportions (one hundred feet in length for banners and forty feet in height for cutouts was calculated to excite the public and nourish a "spectatorial consciousness,"what Roland Barthes, a French cultural critic who often wrote about photography,described as the experiential quality of still photographic images. Barthes recalled being transfixed by still images from movies, but then losing all memory of them while viewing the film they came from .

In contrast, a single and isolated film still that stands alone can be viewed indefinitely and more carefully. 19 The main purpose of this paragraph is to: A) present the narrator's thoughts about the dusty streets she has traveled on several times before.
