Diving Into the Movies
This class will foster the fun, vitality, and warmth of friends sharing a conversation about a great film they’ve just seen. Before meeting, participants will watch four films, hand-selected for their engaging themes, issues, storytelling, and acting (students will receive notes about what to look for while watching the films). We will then meet online for a lecture and discussion about the films’ elements. Note: The movie list will be provided before the start of the course.
