Course Materials for 'Theories of Filmmaking' - FA/FILM 2400 6.0, Fall and Winter Terms, 1998-1999

Outline, Readings, Examinations and (for private use of EWC) Schedule of Lectures and Screenings for a year-long course for film majors (and others, if interested) that I taught from 1970 to my retirement in 2008, sometimes twice weekly to double sections and under a variety of rubrics (film theory, screenwriting, film history, film studies) depending on the whims of the time and the school within which I was teaching, interrupted only by occasional leaves of absence or administrative duties. The form and content of the course served as the foundation upon which every other of my 'film' courses was constructed. The materials from 1998-1999 as here presented are representative of those used before and after.
