The Art Film
Four Transcendent Examples/Ira Konigsberg
Four significant international films from the mid-twentieth century were, in part, a reaction to the recent world war and also an endeavor to transcend Hollywood’s traditional filmmaking. These films are sometimes called “art films” because of their stylistic innovations and the humanism that fills their images and narratives.
The class will screen and discuss "The Bicycle Thieves" (Italy,1948);
"Ugetsu" (Japan, 1953); "Winter Light" (Sweden,1962); and "Jules and Jim" (France,1962). Ira Konigsberg is Professor Emeritus of Film and Literature at the University of Michigan.
This study group for those 50 and over will be held on Wednesdays from April to April 25.
