Finally, time permitting, we will examine how and why films can become political events. There are no texts assigned for the class. We will be reading selected items that will form the reading packet for the class. Readings will be handed out in class according to the reading schedule. Copies will be made for students.
Students are responsible for all financial costs for the reading packets.

Any late work will receive an automatic grade of zero.
