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.
The author of the passage suggests that which of the following is tru e of the practice of establishing the "Eisenstein standard" as a model of modernist films（） A．While the standard is daunting and rarely achieved, it nevertheless raises the overall standard of art making in a positive fashion.
B．It is a risky position for a critic to take, given that Eisenstein's films are consistently inferior to those of his imitators.
C．This practice has the unfortunate effect of establishing which films will be noted and which ignored in the future, without regard to merit.
D．On the balance it is a wise practice, as it maintains interest in Eisenstein' s imitators who would otherwise go forgotten.
E．It has the effect of ameliorating the transgressive or controversial reputation of experimental film.
