| CINE 266 - Film History 2-The Sound Era through the 1960s |
|
This is the second course in a three-part survey of film history: aesthetic, economic, technological, and cultural. This course explores the maturation and decline of the studio system in postwar U.S., as well as key international film movements that were informed by, but also challenged, the Hollywood model. Students will be introduced to the basic visual and aural elements of film language and tasked with using this vocabulary to analyze cinematic texts. The primary goals of the survey are twofold: to help students recognize and identify particular historical approaches to understanding film; to enable students to apply a cinematic vocabulary to identify and analyze cinematic style in and across film texts and within and between film movements. Weekly campus screenings are required, and clips of films are used in class for close analysis and are an integral part of the course.
