[Middle English premisse, from Old French, from Medieval Latin praemissa (proposition), (the proposition) put before, premise, from Latin, feminine past participle of praemittere, to set in front :prae-, pre- + mittere, to send.]

Word History: Why do we call a single building the premises? To answer this question, we must go back to the Middle Ages. But first, let it be noted that premises comes from the past participlepraemissa, which is both a feminine singular and a neuter plural form of the Latin verb praemittere, "to send in advance, utter by way of preface, place in front, prefix." In Medieval Latin the feminine formpraemissa was used as a term in logic, for which we still use the term premise descended from the Medieval Latin word (first recorded in a work composed before 1380). Medieval Latin praemissa in the plural meant "things mentioned before" and was used in legal documents, almost always in the plural, a use that was followed in Old French and Middle English, both of which borrowed the word from Latin. A more specific legal sense in Middle English, "that property, collectively, which is specified in the beginning of a legal document and which is conveyed, as by grant," was also always in the plural in Middle English and later Modern English. And so it remained when this sense was extended to mean "a house or building with its grounds or appurtenances," a usage first recorded before 1730.

Film Philosophy

Have you ever heard words "Filmosophy".. what is exactly is this? Filmosophy is from Film Philosophy.

Film Philosophy

Filmosophy is a provocative new manifesto for a radically philosophical way of understanding cinema. The book coalesces twentieth-century ideas of film as thought (from Hugo Münsterberg to Gilles Deleuze) into a practical theory of ‘film-thinking’, arguing that film style conveys poetic ideas through a constant dramatic ‘intent’ about the characters, spaces and events of film. With discussions of contemporary filmmakers such as Béla Tarr, Michael Haneke and the Dardenne brothers, this timely intervention into the study of film and philosophy will stir argument and discussion among both filmgoers and filmmakers alike.

Daniel Frampton is a London-based writer and filmmaker, and the
founding editor of the salon-journal Film-Philosophy.

The important thing about philosophy to adapted their movie is when they write the story. Know well the PREMISE. Premise of a film or screenplay is the fundamental concept that drives the plot.

A good premise can usually be expressed very simply, and many films can be identified simply from a short sentence describing the premise.

The filmmaker still really need to understand what is philosophy of their works, their script, their screenplay and they can really imagine what exactly they need it for the set. The basic cinema is to know the film philosophy on their film.
