A reflexive film is a film that makes the audience aware of the filmaking process. Reflexivity is defined by such devices as looking into the camera, taking advantage of two-dimensionality of the screen, or simply making a film about making a film.
Contributor's notes: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) is considered a reflexive film because the lead character (Matthew Broderick) occasionally transitions his gaze into the camera to narrate his thoughts to the audience directly. Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story (2005) is also a prime example of reflexivity in filmmaking, and is quite a brilliant film, in and of itself. However, I cannot mention why it is reflexive, because that will lessen the appreciation of the film. Check it out sometime; you will not be dissappointed.
