Discusses the concept of sound and image in cinema, focusing on the idea of "added value." It uses examples from Ingmar Bergman's film "Persona" and Jacques Tati's "Mr. Hulot's Holiday" to illustrate how sound enriches and complements the visual experience. When sound is removed, the visuals lose their impact and unity. Conversely, without visuals, the sounds create a different film experience. The author argues that the combination of sound and image creates an illusion and an expressive value that enhances the viewer's perception. The passage suggests that cinema is not solely an art of the image but a combination of image and sound.
