Following World War II, Italian directors like Roberto Rossellini and Vittorio De Sica introduced the world to neorealism, an aesthetic movement that changed the art of cinema forever. But what is neorealism, and what are the complex historical factors that allowed this movement to thrive? What economic factors contributed to directors like Federico Fellini and Michelangelo Antonioni breaking away from neorealism in the 1960s in favor of postmodern existentialism and the hermetic environment of Cinecittà? What do spaghetti westerns or mainstream comedies reveal about Italian culture? And how have modern auteurs like Lina Wertmüller, Ferzan Özpetek, and Alice Rohrwacher carried these disparate threads forward into the present and future? In Introduction to Italian Cinema, you will answer these questions. Students will learn not only how to closely read and analyze films as complicated texts but also how to write critically rich papers that explore the complex historical backdrop that impacted not only directors, but films and audiences as well. Students will learn to analyze the elements of film imagery. To do so, you will watch films and discuss them. You will read film theory and history. You will immerse yourself in “la dolce vita.” This course counts as an ENGL 200-level elective for English majors/minors, an ENGL 211+ allied course for select business majors, a History/Criticism/Theory course for Film Studies majors and minors, and a WAC Writing Intensive requirement. It also satisfies both the Integration in the Humanities and the Global Studies requirements. Prerequisites: None. NOTE: This course is cross-listed with FILM 250: there are 10 seats on the ENGL 297 side and 10 seats available on the FILM 250 side.

In this course, students will view, discuss, and read and write about feature-length films from Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe, and possibly India and/or the Middle East.

The course fulfills the Human Diversity requirement of the core curriculum at UST by addressing issues of race, ethnicity, gender, and geopolitical status. It scrutinizes the ways in which institutionalized and structural power and privilege are reflected in the subject matter, creation, and audience reception of film.
