Thank you for your answers Pip, Joel and Mark. I'll try to get the book *The Essential Cinema*, first published by the New York University Press in 1975 and then by the Anthology Film Archives around 1989. <https://www.goodreads.com/work/editions/6309626-the-essential-cinema-essays-on-the-films-in-the-collection-of-anthology>
Someone gave me the email of P. Adams Sitney so i will try to write him to know the initial ideas behind the project Essential Cinema and the procedures to establish and consolidate it.
