    Description
    This course explores the dynamic portrayal of gender in film by examining the ways men and women interact and work in tandem to create conflict and collaboration both on screen and within the film industry. Topics include Feminist film theory, the depiction of masculinity and femininity, and the contributions of women film artists. Students analyze films throughout film history and across genres to evaluate patterns of representation and the cultural, social, and political impact of women in film.
