Survey of American narrative film since the 1960s, when the demise of the studio system, the relaxing of censorship, and the influence of foreign productions ignited a revolution in American filmmaking. Focusing on the development of major film genres, we will examine how post-classical filmmakers revised the language of old Hollywood cinema in light of radical social, economic, and technological changes in U.S. culture. Directors may include Hitchcock, Aldrich, Penn, Coppola, Polanski, Fosse, Scott, Kotcheff, Craven, Cameron, Jonze, Bird, Bigelow, McQueen, and Tarantino.
