It was a wonderful night, such a night as is only possible when we are young, dear reader. The sky was so starry, so bright that, looking at it, one could not help asking oneself whether ill-humoured and capricious people could live under such a sky. That is a youthful question too, dear reader, very youthful, but may the Lord put it more frequently into your heart!... Speaking of capricious and ill-humoured people, I cannot help recalling my moral condition all that day. From early morning I had been oppressed by a strange despondency. It suddenly seemed to me that I was lonely, that every one was forsaking me and going away from me. Of course, any one is entitled to ask who "every one" was.

Apaixonada por cinema, bell hooks dedicou parte considerável da vida a assistir, debater e escrever sobre filmes, analisando o que via nas telas a partir de um olhar aguçado para questões de raça, classe e gênero. A energia que dedicou à crítica cinematográfica se explica pelo poder que conferia à narrativa audiovisual: "O cinema produz magia. Modifica as coisas. Pega a realidade e a transforma em algo diferente bem diante dos nossos olhos". Daí que tenha mantido sob permanente escrutínio o trabalho de inúmeras diretoras e diretores, sobretudo daqueles que optaram por retratar a vida e o drama de pessoas negras. Com sensibilidade e tenacidade, bell hooks interpretou os principais filmes de seu tempo, fossem produções independentes ou hollywoodianas. Neste livro, encontramos críticas essenciais a obras de Quentin Tarantino, Mike Figgis, John Singleton, Julie Dash e, claro, Spike Lee — sem dúvida, o cineasta que mais chamou a atenção da autora ao longo dos anos. Encerram o volume entrevistas com os realizadores Wayne Wang, Camille Billops, Charles Burnett e Arthur Jafa. Assim, de acordo com a própria bell hooks, Cinema vivido"questiona e ao mesmo tempo celebra a capacidade do cinema de abrir caminho para uma nova consciência e de transformar a cultura".
