This course will explore the important concept of genre in film, analyzing its various styles and conventions.  We will discuss genre both as a critical term and as a system of classification that defines and characterizes groups of related narrative and cinematic form. Strict genre films (Westerns, war films, comedy, melodrama, horror films, musicals, gangster films, sci-fi films, etc.) as well as sub-genre and crossover films that blend several genres will be discussed. Topics include genre criticism, audience expectations, spectatorship, the tension between genre and auteurism, and genre and its relation to popular culture.  Films include The Shining (Kubrick, 1980), Django Unchained (Tarantino, 2012), Eagle vs Sharks (Taika Waititi, 2007), John Wick (Chad Stahelski, 2014), Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels (Ritchie, 1998), Marriage Story (Baumbach, 2019), and Dune: Part One (Villeneuve, 2021).

This course explores contemporary and classical film noir in the context of style and narrative.  As critics Paul Schrader and David Desser have pointed out, film noir is not simply a genre but rather a style that is highly adaptable and hence can be found in various film genres in international and contemporary cinemas.  As a style, noir foregrounds a culture of corruption and may be seen as a critical social narrative.  At the same time, noir also involves aesthetic play with light, water, images of the femme fatale, violence, and crime as its essential ingredients.  Our course will cover a variety of contemporary examples foregrounding different issues such as masculinity and consumer culture (Fight Club 1999), environment and social corruption(Michael Clayton, 2007), corporate/media culture (Nightcrawler, 2014) nationhood and borders (Sicario, 2015; No Country for Old Men, 2007), assassins and professionalism (In Bruges, 2008; John Wick: Chapter 2, 2017)  and contemporary nihilism and dark comedy (Joker, 2019;The Batman, 2022; The Big Lebowski, 1998). No prerequisites.
