Special Topics in Genres/Auteurs/Cinema Movements; The Art of Trilogy in World Cinema
Through screening, readings, and discussions, this self-paced online course will critically examine some of the most important trilogies in world cinema in order to see how cinematic trilogies, in a spectrum of genres, deepen our appreciation of each director's recurrent themes, voices, and styles. These trilogies provide great opportunities to explore ideology, gender, sexuality in media serialization. We will study the "classical" or original "Star Wars" trilogy, Leone's "Dollars" trilogy, Ang Lee's "Father Knows Best" trilogy, Spielberg's "Indian Jones" trilogy, Ray's "Apu" trilogy, Coppola's "Godfather" trilogy, and Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, etc.
