Days and Times
As soon as we obtain enough interest in this class we will be in touch to work out a meeting time that works for the group. Thank you for keeping your October 2026 availability up to date!
This class needs more pre-enrollment by September 1 to get confirmed.
This module is a standing candidate which means it will be ready to launch as soon as it gets enough interest. Token holders can set aside a Token to reserve their seat for class and help it get confirmed.
This course is a lively introduction to the big ideas of film studies. Through lectures, clips, and discussion, we'll explore film history, genre, authorship, culture, and the many ways we can interpret what we see on screen. Whether you're a devoted cinephile or simply love watching movies, you'll leave with new ways to think about—and enjoy—the films you watch.
This course builds on LCM1: Intro to Reading Films, but it’s not necessary to take that before taking this one. The two together will just give a strong foundation for the film courses to come from Maggie in her two series of classes.
*Note: Since this module is about visual interpretation of a scene, parts of it may not be accessible for visual/sight or hearing impaired.
