Fields of Vision marks a departure from previous book-length approaches to Philippine film criticism in its scholarly application of modernist principles. Such issues as auteurism, structuralism, and spectatorship are pursued with the view of testing their usefulness for Philippine cinema, instead of simply dismissing them in the wake of more recent methodologies.
The longer critical essays in the anthology tend to encompass Philippine film history, whi;e the reviews concentrate on recent and still-available titles. Asserting that film has long been serving the function of a unifying national language, Fields of Vision is marked by appreciation for the popular, concern for issues of quality, and acknowledgement of the far-reaching and continuing impact of film on the Philippine way of life.
