Solanas and Getino's manifesto considers 'First Cinema' to be the Hollywood production model that promulgates Bourgeois values to a passive audience through escapist spectacle and individual characters. 'Second Cinema' is the European Art Film , which rejects Hollywood conventions but is centred on the individual expression of the Auteur director. Third Cinema rejects the view of cinema as a vehicle for personal expression, seeing the director instead as part of a collective; it appeals to the masses by presenting the truth and inspiring aggressive activity. Solanas and Getino argue that traditional exhibition models also need to be avoided: the films should be screened clandestinely, so that the viewer must take a risk to see them.David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson, ''Film History: An Introduction'', 2nd edtn.
