The article focuses on the issue of phenomenon of cinema in works of Jean-Francois Lyotard, Henri Bergson, Roland Barth, Michel Foucault and Jean Baudrillard. Postmodern methodology allows one to view cinema as a “deconstruction” of both cultural and socio-political discourse. Based on the analysis of the works of philosophers, the author generalizes the phenomenological characteristics of the cinema of postmodernism, such as the hypnotic ritualism of cinema; devaluation of meta-narratives; and appeal to the absolute “banal” and “hyper-realities”. It is noted that the spread of postmodern tendencies in modern cinema is manifested in drama, imagery, stylistics, montage and other components of the creative process. The author concludes that Jean-Francois Lyotard, Henri Bergson, Roland Barthes, Michel Foucault and Jean Baudrillard have laid the foundations for understanding the unity of philosophy and cinema in the modern world.
