Summary/Abstract: This text is an attempt to present the current and still developing field of New Modernist Studies, very much present in Anglo-American literature studies of early XXI century. Scholars associated with NMS, such as Susan Stanford Friedman, Douglas Mao or Rebecca Walkowitz are aiming in reformulating traditional definitions of artistic and literary Modernism by expanding its scope and opening the field for interdisciplinary, comparative, or postcolonial readings. Their work and propositions might be useful in the field of film studies as well, as a way systematizing and deepening the existing understanding of cinematic modernism. Słowa kluczowe: filmoznawstwo, modernizm, nowe studia modernistyczne, filmowy modernizm.
