FILM 102 Film History 2

This course covers the period from 1950 to the present. Through lectures, discussions, and analyses of screenings of films and film clips, this course will offer a chronology of the development of both the artistic elements in the narrative motion picture -- exploring the film story as a natural progression of the storytelling tradition that has shaped scripture, poetry, drama, and the novel throughout human history - and as a globe-spanning business that has reshaped our perceptions of cultures, ethnic groups, and economic systems. Prerequisite: None
