Ellis Auditorium Course Syllabus, Spring 2017 READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY! Welcome to the Spring Cinema Series… a unique opportunity to learn about cinema in an interdisciplinary, cinematheque-style environment open to the general public! Throughout the term we will invite a variety of special guests to enrich your understanding of the films in the series. The films will be preceded by formal introductions and followed by public discussions. You are welcome and encouraged to bring guests throughout the term! This is not a traditional class, therefore it is important for you to review the course assignments and due dates carefully to ensure that you fulfill all the requirements to earn the grade you desire. We want the Cinema Series to be both entertaining and enlightening for students and community alike. Welcome to our college film club! COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will introduce students to one of the most powerful cultural and social communications media of our time: cinema. The successful student will become more aware of the complexity of film art, more sensitive to its nuances, textures, and rhythms, and more perceptive in “reading” its multilayered blend of image, sound, and motion. The films, texts, and classroom materials will cover a broad range of domestic, independent, and international cinema, making students aware of the culture, politics, and social history of the periods in which the films were produced.

  • Media Release​. Tiff Reveals Best Films of the Decade
    November 27, 2019 MEDIA RELEASE​. TIFF REVEALS BEST FILMS OF THE DECADE Featuring works by Lucrecia Martel, Barry Jenkins, Jean-Luc Godard, and more TORONTO​ — ​TIFF today unveiled The Best of the Decade: An Alternative View, featuring a total of 19 films ​ ​ figuring in the top 10 list — the first two of which were directed by women. All films will play at TIFF Bell Lightbox January 23 through March 11, 2020 to mark the 30th anniversary of TIFF’s Cinematheque. TIFF asked film curators, historians, and archivists from Canada and around the world to choose the best films of the 2010s — any length, genre, or format. TIFF created its first Best of the Decade poll at the turn of the millennium in 2000, and sparked a huge sensation when a relatively unknown film, Victor Erice’s​ The Quince Tree Sun​ (​Dream of Light​), placed first. The 2010 survey named Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Syndromes and a Century ​the best film of the 2000s. “Many of the films in the poll’s top 10 address the perilous era we have just lived through, with such prescient works as ​Film Socialisme​, ​Neighboring Sounds​, and ​Sieranevada​ predicting various types of ecological, political, and social calamity,” said Senior Programmer James Quandt. “The film of the decade, Lucrecia Martel’s astonishing ​Zama​, transforms an existential novel into a fiercely political work that comments on both its racist, colonialist period setting and our own dire times.” The Best of the Decade: An Alternative View​ comprises: 1 Zama​ (2017), dir. Lucrecia Martel 2 Toni Erdmann​ (2016), dir. Maren Ade 3 Adieu au langage​ (2014), dir.
