ABSTRACTThis article argues that musicality is a potential inherent to the film medium which can be realised through various devices, in different stages of the film-making process, investing film with a fluency, immediacy and affective impact similar to music. The concept of film musicality is illustrated by the example of Jim Jarmusch's Dead Man, showing how the logic of musical structuring can affect aspects of a film's micro- and macro-structures, define the sense of the film¿s temporality and what we eventually come to understand as the film's meaning.
