Description: |
This course explores three of Italy’s mostprominent postwar directors, Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni and Liliana Cavani, who developed distinct cinemas and contributed radical representations to key cultural debates.
Students will examine each filmmaker’s specific formal and thematic innovations, such as Fellini’s
carnivalesque and dreamlike states, Antonioni’s use of space and color, and Cavani’s marginal
figures and use of flashback. Students will also compare how their works address three of postwar
Italy’s and the West’s most critical questions: modernization, the 1968 student protests and the
legacy of Fascism. Films include: Fellini’s La Dolce Vita and Amarcord; Antonioni’s Red Desert and
Zabriskie Point; Cavani’s The Cannibals and The Night Porter. Assignments include: historical,
biographical and critical readings, film screenings, short papers and a final essay. Readings will
be in English and films will be shown with English subtitles |
