This course aims to develop an advanced understanding of film as a complex visual medium through the study of key theoretical approaches. Theoretical approaches discussed will include the chief ones, realist theory and formalist theory, as well as their major manifestations—the films themselves—and their major exponents—such important theorists as Kracauer, Bazin, Münsterberg, Arnheim, and Balázs.
