Class Information

Film as Literature
This is a class about thinking. Every movie—no matter how simple it might seem on the surface—can give us a million things to think about and a million things to talk about. In this course we will learn some of the technical terms connected to film as an art form. We will learn to recognize the techniques filmmakers use in order to tell their stories. We will also use movies as a springboard for discussions about issues central to our own experiences. And, of course, we will also watch movies simply to be entertained and be amazed at what humans can create when they put their minds to it. But the bottom line is that this class is about thinking. So be ready to think. Course syllabus.
