CORE 002 SC - Cinema

An introduction to film analysis starting with the birth of cinema and extending to contemporary film. We will explore films from across the globe—from the more traditional “classical style” to the experimental and quirky—while developing an understanding of the history of film. We study film theory; we consider film as a distinct mode of seeing, thinking, and feeling; and we consider how films both resist and conform to our attempts to theorize them.
