International Film

This course examines various connections between international films and the societies and cultures they represent. By viewing, discussing, analyzing, comparing, and evaluating films from diverse eras and continents, students experience a historical survey of the twentieth century in both a multicultural and global manner. Students approach films in an analytical and critical mode, considering how they challenge or advance political, economic, and social values and institutions or how they represent the times and cultures in which they are made. Prerequisite(s): ENGL 1101.
