COMM 197 - A Soc & Cult Hist of Amer Movi

2 Credit Hours
Hollywood has always taken historical themes for some of its most ambitious projects, a trend that has become even more pronounced in the past decade. What has not always been understood is that Hollywood and the development of the American movie industry has been a central element in the social and cultural history of 20th century America. Thus, this workshop has two purposes: to critically examine various film images of American history and equally important, to place Hollywood and its products in the larger context of 20th century American history.
