| Inhalt | We all seem to think we know how to watch, interpret, and criticize films - perhaps more than any other cultural form. Yet film theory has a considerable and complex history running from classic avant-garde or formalist approaches, through structuralism, to psychological, feminist and philosophical approaches. This ACE 3 course will consider some of the basic tools with which we can approach films & film to enable critical readings of some classic moments in cinema. The course will take examples from a wide-range of film genres as content. In the expression of close critical readings, students will produce three pieces of academic writing on film. Films will be made available for viewing on your own throughout the semester. |
| Lernziele | Students will learn specifically about the films from the canon, and more generally about ways to approach film through various critical frameworks. They will refine their analytical skills, their ability to apply theory and form research questions, and practice discussing their own critical readings of film in writing. |
| Literatur | We will refer to the following films: - "La Pointe Courte" (Agnes Varda 1955) - "A Taste of Honey" (Tony Richardson 1961) - "A Woman Under the Influence" (John Cassavetes 1974) - "Jeanne Dielman, 23 Commerce Quay, 1080 Brussels" (Chantal Ackerman 1975) - "Orlando" (Sally Potter 1992) - "The Arbor" (Clio Barnard 2010) |
