Politics and Film
Films often mirror society in both intentional and unintentional ways. Some are overtly political, some reflect changing values and some are made purely for entertainment. This course will reflect on the various political perspectives which enable students to critically assess films. It will assess the role films play in reinforcing or debunking stereotypes. These themes will be examined in the context of the film industry in Canada and internationally.
