CINE 3402- “French Cinema: the Paris of the New Wave and beyond.” 

Mayterm: May 10th to May 26th, 2022

On this program, students earn upper-division credit for CINE and/or A&S Core (Lit & Arts; AHUM). We learn about and explore the deep links of the French New Wave (1958-1964) and its heirs to the City of Paris as locale, inspiration, and business center of the French film industry. By nature, the course engages in French/Parisian art and culture, while experiencing new cultural perspectives with visits to prominent film locations (the Champs Elysés, Monmartre, Versailles), art museums (the Louvre, the Centre Georges Pompidou), and other relevant sites (the Cinémathèque Française, etc).
