課程概述 |
Course Description
This course is for students who wish to develop their critical skills by reading what are often neglected texts in academic screen studies. Full-length screenplays will be analyzed each week in order to understand the complex nature of the screenplay in terms of story, character, plot, psychological and emotional depth, micro and macro structure, dynamic and arcs within specific historical and cultural contexts.
