Film Appreciation is a basic survey aiming to acquaint the student with the art of the form. The focus is on the narrative or story film and the approach is analytical rather than historical. Having completed the course a student should find that she/he has greater insight into the creating of films and a greater appreciation of that which is good in film. A more insightful filmgoer should be a more demanding patron.
