Film Studies
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.
The course started on Wednesday October 11th 2023 and runs weekly from 10 to 11.30am.
NEW MEMBERS ARE WELCOME TO JOIN AT ANY TIME.
NB the course is run on ZOOM
