The Obvious and The Code"

I was so lost by reading Raymond Bellour's reading! I agree that Rushdie's interpretation of The Wizard of Oz, was by far one of the most interesting and well written pieces of work that i have come across. When it came to Rushdie's book he made it so much more easier to understand and comprehend. On the other hand i found myself reading and re-reading Bellour's article and was still left empty handed. In his article he talks he states; "obviousness is the mark of Howard Hawks' genius,"[5] No doubt—provided we recognize the extent to which that obviousness only comes to the fore insofar as it is coded." And then he list 6 codes. I was able to understand and stay with him briefly, and then he started going off on tangents. The most that I could take from what Bellour was trying to imply was that this "narrative code" he spoke of was in relation tp certain scenes in film, and how in relation they go hand in hand to "manifest" expression to film. PS...if ANYONE understood what the heck he was saying PLZ let me kno :-)
