Beginning with the early silent period of the late 19th century, which marks the origins of cinema as it is known today, in this subject you will survey influential movements in French cinema. This will include the experimental films of the Surrealists and the Nouvelle Vague, the stylistic concerns of Cinema du Look, nostalgia in Heritage cinema, attempts to create a 'national memory' in Post-colonial films and recent French contributions to Transnational cinema. Throughout the subject, you will develop a foundational understanding of French film theory and criticism, together with background information on the socio-political context of film production in France. All prescribed films will be in French (with English subtitles), exposing you to the nature, structures, sounds, and forms of an ever-evolving French language, as well as the development and changes in cinematic styles, language, and visual culture in their social and cultural contexts. The subject will be taught in English and all students with an interest in film are encouraged to enrol, not just those who are majoring in French.
