单项选择题
While examination of Eisenstein’ s work has yielded better understandings of film theory, such attention is rarely granted to the work of his successors. Even within the comparatively specialized field of film studies, these filmsLine remain largely ignored; they are discussed in a reductive and superficial manner (5) when taught, typically valued solely for rejecting or contesting Hollywood norms, trivializing movements sorely in need of rejuvenation, and given the economic situation of independent film production, such ignorance generates destructive cycle of neglect and ignorance. The stakes involved in naming Eisenstein as the model of the modernist film project are especially fraught since(10) the values implicit in such a decision help determine the availability of entire bodies of radical film. One deleterious result of applying the "Eisenstein standard" has been to make it easier than ever to remain ignorant of experimental film forms, which can uniformly be extolled as "transgressive" or "deconstructive" without serious engagement.
Which of the following is most analogous to the fate that the experimental films, described above, have received as a result of their association with Eisenstein's work（） A．A lesser-known author is discovered to have influenced a more famous one, and his works are rescued from anonymity.
B．An experimental artistic tradition falls into decline as a result of its practitioners adopting the idiom of a more popular one.
C．A popular composer's oeuvre is held up as the epitome of the genre, so that music critics praise his pupil's work without bothering to listen to it.
D．The interest in an archeological method diminishes over time, largely out of the failure of its inventor to generate new results.
E． A painter rebels against the advice of her teacher, after critics observe that her own work is indistinguishable from his.
