Welcome to PERF 215 Screen Studies
You will need to do a bit of preparation for this unit before arriving
at class.
1. Read the lectures. These will be reviewed briefly in class,
but the information they contain will be important to the class
discussions, as well as the exam. These are very detailed lectures
-- so take your time and take notes. There are a few extaneous page
references -- they are to Monaco's How to Read a Film if
you are interested in looking further.
2. Read the relevant chapters of ebrary books. This may be troublesome in some respects but e-publishing allows you access to quite a few resources.
3. It may be advisable to see at least some of the films before
class -- it will be easier to take notes at home. A second viewing
in class may be very helpful.
The films are:
- Modern Times
- Citizen Kane
- Vertigo
- Bladerunner
- The Fog of War
- and some others...
