The course explores cinema as a serious art form, perhaps the major one of the 20th century. We focus on the interpretation of films through the techniques of cinematic analysis in order to learn the art of seeing. Although other approaches to film are presented, the auteur theory, that the director is the primary creative force behind a great film, predominates. We view and discuss the films to consider what the auteur (director) is saying, how the auteur is saying it, and how successfully the auteur says it. We consider such topics as whether the true cinema was the silent one; the tension between the cinematic and literary components of a film's structure; how the style of a film can reflect the cultural texture of its director; the importance of film movements-the French New Wave, for example-on film history. The films viewed reflect different cultural experiences to provide an international dimension.
