Syllabus
  • This course will look at the work of a series of British film directors, looking at ways in which their films depict, analyse and challenge aspects of British culture and social relations. Among the directors whose work will be included are Lindsay Anderson, Ken Loach, Peter Greenaway, Mike Leigh, Stephen Frears and Ridley Scott. The course will not require any knowledge of film theory and will consider the films primarily as cultural texts rather than as audio-visual artefacts, though some perspectives from film criticism and theory will be introduced at a basic level. Prospective participants should note that they will be expected to attend viewings of the films outside of the seminar times.
