|---|---|---|
An exploration of films as reflections of American history and of American history as it is projected in films. Students will learn to "read" films as historical documents and will consider the role of films in shaping understandings of history. The course will concentrate on a small number of themes, genres, and problems, and will endeavour to illuminate these through the critical analysis of select films in historical context. | ||
