3 HU, CD, WR
First Semester. This course will provide a historical survey of French cinema, starting with Méliès and the Lumière Brothers, and working through 1930s Poetic Realism, the Occupation, the New Wave, the 1990s, and the beginning of the digital age. Historical contextualization will be balanced with close film analysis and studies of cinematic technique and structure. We will also discuss cinema’s relationship to the other arts (literature, photography, theatre, and painting). Taught in English. Identical to FREN 250.
Prerequisites & Notes Enrollment Limit: 30.
