• Learn to watch a film from another time and be able to interpret it • To acquire the historical basis and the essential reference points for understanding and analysing cinema
This course provides an introductory overview of the major Western cinematographies (European and American) from the invention of the Lumière brothers in 1895 to the 1960s and the end of classical cinema. This historical evolution of the 7th art is studied from a technical, economic, political, industrial and formal point of view. The cinematographies are approached from a double perspective: both synchronic (a chronological period as a whole, the major currents and transfers between different cinematographies) and diachronic (the continuities and ruptures between each period, for example, from silent to talking pictures).
