EN 120 - Introduction to Film

This course is designed as an introduction to film analysis and criticism. We will study film as an art form using methods similar to those used in the study of literature. Each week students will view and discuss one or two films that represent a variety of techniques, genres, directors, and cultural perspectives. Attention will be paid to both film criticism and film technique. In addition, students will be expected to read film criticism and history, to write weekly papers, and to master the technical vocabulary.
