Description:

This course considers the work of one to three film directors through a close examination of their films, and to explore "authorship"as a concept with a constantly evolving and historically contingent definition. In doing so, we will consider whether, when, and how a director and/or his or her biographical history is considered a substantial influence on a film's meaning. Crucially, we will consider these films in relation to their historical moments and audiences. Prerequisites: Another film course or permission of the instructor.
