Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the concept of research on linguistic stylisation in the Polish feature film. The author notices that the issue has not been an object of major interest on the part of linguists to date although the film art plays a significant role in the contemporary cultural life and screenwriters use stylisation devices probably not less frequently than novelists or playwrights. With reference to the relevant literature, the author formulates the essential assumptions of the designed research. The material base of the analyses should be recordings. As regards methodology, achievements of structuralist stylistics, linguistic research on the language of television, and concepts of cultural linguistics should be used. At the first stage of the works, it is recommendable to choose one stylisation category as an object of description. When selecting films for analysis, one should be guided by professional studies of cinematography.
