Description:

Film is a unique art form, a revolutionary mode of communication, and an expansive industrial enterprise that has made an indelible mark on world culture since its introduction at the end of the nineteenth century. In part, this course is a chronological journey through world cinema after World War II, though it also requires students to think critically about the themes and aesthetics of the films, movements, and national cinemas discussed, and how they at once helped to shape and were products of the cultural, historical, and industrial moments in which they were made. Topics include Italian neorealism, film noir the Hollywood blacklist, the French new wave, and new Hollywood. 3 credits.
