Subject Description

This subject explores developments in the Hollywood film industry from the 1960s to the present. Students should grasp some of the key issues of this period, including the focus on modernist strategies; revisionist approaches to early Hollywood genres; the emergence of left/right cycle films; allusionism and the new generation of Hollywood film school 'auteurs' (Coppola, Spielberg, Scorsese), and the next generation that followed (Burton, Tarantino, the Coens, Lee). Students will also be looking critically at film theoretical responses to the Hollywood cinema of this era.
