COMM 3373 - Faith in Film

Institution:

Northwest University

Subject:

Description:

Development of a Christian film aesthetic. Students view mainstream, independent and international films, with an eye to understanding and discussing them in the language of film production and film criticism. Films are selected for their innovation and mastery of the filmmaker's craft and art. A brief history of the rating system of the Motion Picture Association of American (MPAA) forms part of the basis for examining the difficult of selecting films of value, rather than films which are simply guaranteed not to offend. Selected readings in critical texts and the wring of film. Reviews, responses and essays form the basis for evaluation. (Same as DRAM/ENGL 3373)
