ENG 2860 - Introduction to Cinema Studies

3(2 + 2)

Prerequisite: ENG 1020 or Permission of instructor

In this course students will study cinema as culture, both in its on-screen forms and in the form of written critique. The emphasis will be on learning the language of cinema criticism so that students can produce critical writing of their own. Films studied will represent diverse perspectives and nationalities; those films not from Anglophone cultures will be screened with English subtitles.
