  • ENGL W4670x: Film Studies:American Film Genres

    3.00 Credits
    Barnard College

    Some critics contend that all Hollywood film is either melodrama or morality play, no matter what its claims to the contrary; others see it as purely wish-fulfillment fantasy. This course will examine a range of genres in Hollywood film, while also scrutinizing and questioning the formation and usefulness of genre distinctions. Our orientation will be formal as well as social and historical, as we explore codes and conventions of generic illusion and verisimilitude, the rise and fall of genres (the Western, the "weepie"), increasing self-reflexiveness (in noir, musicals, romantic comedy), genre and acting style, genre-bending and postmodernity, mis en scene. Why are certain genres linked to political parties, as are specific styles of heroism Genres will include: the Western, War Movie, Romantic Comedy, Horror, Action, Gangster, Melodrama, Social Conscience, Musicals and "Women's films." Two Screenings per week. General Education Requirement: The Visual and Performing Arts (ART). Not offered in 2009-2010. 3 points
