Abstract

This chapter examines Yann Tomaâs short film Walk the Golden Night (silent and in color) as a detective mystery, which investigates itself by raising questions of its own philosophical self-consciousness. Abrams develops this view through comparison with Andy Warholâs eight-hour silent black and white film Empire (1964), in which nothing happens, and which, according to Arthur Danto in âThe Philosopher as Andy Warhol,â raises questions of its own philosophical self-consciousness, through its ambiguous relation to still photography, Empire being a moving picture without moving pictures.
