Course Description:
In this course, we watch masterpieces making milestones of the history of Japan. In the class, after brief commentary about the film and its staffs and casts, we watch some parts of the works (characteristic scenes, so-called "attractions"). Students will write a short essay. Then, we will try to categorize and situate those works in the contexts of cinema history, by reviewing the studies on those movies and contemporary critiques. Many works of remade movies that have affected domestic and foreign films will be introduced in this course, and compare and discuss upon them..
Watching throughout 15+pieces of films at home will be required in this course.
