- Course objectives
- This course is focused on World Cinema from its emergence to 1945. Film is and has been simultaneously art form, technology, economic institution, and cultural product. We come to understand better how that system operates and how it changed over time. We are guided by concept of David Bordwell and Kristin Thompson. Our principal question are: how uses of the film medium changed or become normalized over time? How have the conditions of the film industry-production,distribution, and exhibition-affected the uses of the medium? How have international trends emerged in the uses of the film medium and in the film marked?
