Film Studies
The group will re-start on 17th September 2025 when new members will be welcome and also at any time after this.
An affable, leisurely, friendly amble through aspects of film criticism (the role of a director, the conventions of film genres such as westerns or sci-fi , the representation of gays/women etc). Also some key moments of film history such as the French new wave, new German cinema, film noir, silent films and much more.
Roughly a third lecture/screening/class discussion; this is a chatty, informal entertaining group. Occasional visits to the cinema occur. The course is delivered by our member who has 35 years’ experience of the subject as a lecturer in FE and higher education.
Zoom-online every Wednesday: 10.00 to 11.30. Term re-starts 17th September 2025.
