This will be a course on theory and methodology within the context of three general rubrics: 1) mode of production, or industry 2) apparatus, or the technology of cinematic experience and 3) text, or the network of filmic systems (narrative, image, sound), we will work through and examine a set of concepts (star, spectator, narrative, filmic statement and enunciation, the gaze, suture, sexual and racial difference) that have emerged over the past decades as the most powerful interpretive tools available to the practice of film analysis. Our emphasis will be less on the appreciation of film, but rather on clarifying what is at stake in the act of critical reading.
