    18 JAN 19 28 FEB 19 1 | 18 JAN 19 - 28 FEB 19 49 BELMONT STREET | BELMONTFILMHOUSE.COM What does it mean, ‘to play against type’? Come January/February you may find many examples. Usually it’s motivated by the opportunity to hold aloft a small gold-plated statue, but there are plenty memorable occasions where Hollywood’s elite pulled this trope off fantastically. Think Charlize Theron in Monster. Maybe Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine? Or Heath Ledger as Joker. These performances often come to dominate award season. Directors wrenching a truly transformative rendition out of their leads can be the difference between a potential big winner fading into obscurity, or being written into history. The class of 2019 appears particularly full of these turns. There might well be as much intrigue in figuring out which will be remembered, as in watching the performances themselves. ‘Unrecognisable as’ awards could go out to Margot Robbie as Elizabeth I in Mary Queen Of Scots; Melissa McCarthy in Can You Ever Forgive Me?; Nicole Kidman in Destroyer; Christian Bale as Dick Cheney in Vice. Others of course have been down this road before. Steve Carell has come a long, long way since Michael Scott and he looks tremendous in Beautiful Boy. And Matt Dillon, who we’ll see in The House That Jack Built, has always had a penchant for the slightly off-colour. There’s probably no one more off-colour than Lars von Trier. Screening for one night only. At Belmont Filmhouse we try to play against type as much as possible.

Course Description: This lecture course is an introductory overview of the development of the horror film in modern cinema. We will trace it's roots through it's earliest beginnings, analyzing the artistic, social and political ramifications of the silent era of "golden age cinema", up through the earliest sound-based efforts of the "talkie" motion picture. Students will be given information that links many of the surrounding conditions that contributed to what we consider today to be a viable genre of film that once began as the "genre-that-never-existed". The goal of this course is to pique an interest in not only the historical, artistic and literate merits of a subject which students can relate to, but to create an understanding of the conditions surrounding the subject that will then offer a larger “world view”. By understanding the bigger picture through interconnections with the art movements that ran parallel to the phenomenon of early cinema, students can start to investigate and question the many related subjects and conditions that effected the silent film genre. II. Intended Learning Outcomes/Goals/Objectives (Program/Student Learning Outcomes): We will study, through lecture, interaction and viewing of the films themselves, what established the notions of the horror film and what possible explanations may exist as to why this genre came into being, thus influencing our modern perceptions of not only cinema, but society and our perceptions of reality.

DESCRIPTORS *Critical Thinking; Curriculum Enrichment; *Films; *History Instruction; Secondary Education; Social Studies; *Television; Television Viewing; Videotape Recordings; *Visual Literacy IDENTIFIERS Film Aesthetics; *Film History; *Film Theory ABSTRACT History teachers should be less concerned with having students try to re-experience the past and more concerned with teaching them how to learn from the study of it. Keeping this in mind, teachers should integrate more critical film and television analysis into their history classes, but not in place of reading or at the expense of traditional approaches. Teachers must show students how to engage, rather than suspend, their critical faculties when the projector or television monitor is turned on. The first major section of this book, "Analyzing a Moving Image as a Historical Document," discusses the two stages in the analysis of a moving image document: (1) a general analysis of content, production, and reception; and (2) the study of the moving image document as a representation of history, as evidence for social and cultural history, as evidence for historical fact, or as evidence for the history of film and television.

DESCRIPTORS Class Activities; Classroom Techniques; *English (Second Language); *Films; Foreign Countries; *Foreign Language Films; Second Language Instruction IDENTIFIERS *Mysteries (Literature) ABSTRACT Use of English-language mystery movies is recommended to teach English-as-a-Second-Language listening and speech skills outside an English-language environment. A variety of issues are discussed, including the following: presenting the film in segments for more effectiveness; presenting students with activities that develop specific aspects of the film (dialogue completion, intonation practice, character description, prediction of future events, cultural elements, nonverbal behavior); preparation of a transcript to facilitate study of idioms or vocabulary; and selection of an appropriate film. Pre-teaching questions to motivate students are offered, and specific activities designed to accompany an Agatha Christie murder mystery are outlined. (Contains 13 references.)
