Special Topics in Genres/Auteurs/Cinema Movements; The Global Western

Focuses on the afterlife of the Western, that is, what happened to the genre after its ostensible demise. We will follow its continuation well beyond the 1960s, and examine a certain contradiction in this most American of American film genres. If the Western embodies and expresses American ideals, then why does its afterlife reside to a great extent in non-American spaces and cinemas or as a counter-voice in American culture?
