The European Cinema History section of the Film History component is designed to engage learners with the study of: • Experimental film, which challenged conventional ideas about filmmaking and narrative; and • European film movements, which helped define and lay the building blocks for techniques later used throughout world cinema.
The study of the European Cinema History section provides learners with a contrasting approach to section A of the Film History component where learners will have studied the development of film from the silent era to 1990 through the prism of the US studio system.
In this section learners are required to gain a knowledge and understanding of: • the contextual background to the two film movements or stylistic developments studied, for example, how a movement or stylistic development shares similar ideas about style, aesthetics, or political or social-cultural objectives; and agrees on methods of furthering these through approaches to film narrative/style/genre • the experimental nature of film, with a focus on narrative forms which reject the three- act structure, including non-linear narratives and the significance of narrative structures which are alternative to and/or in opposition to conventional narrative structures.
Learners will also need to build upon the knowledge and understanding gained from the study of historic US Film in section A and develop this in relation to historic European film movements or stylistic developments: Curriculum content Curriculum • the micro-elements of film form; and • identifying how these elements construct meanings and contribute to the aesthetics of film.
In this section learners will also develop the skills to critically debate: • film narrative, including the formalist and structuralist conceptions of film narrative • the claims of naturalism and realism as against the expressive.
There is no comparative requirement in this section.
The focus of these critical debates is to help learners develop their knowledge and understanding of the films they study. For example, learners would be expected to study the structural approaches to storytelling used within the set films, including looking at how the micro-elements of film were used to create those structures in both conventional and experimental ways.
