Film
Credit Courses
Hungarian cinema, like filmmaking in Czechoslovakia, underwent a
renaissance in the 1960�s, but the Hungarian new wave continued to flourish
in the 70�s and film remained one of the most important art forms well into
the 80�s. This course examines the cultural, social and political context
of representative Hungarian films of the K�d�rist period, with special
emphasis on the work of such internationally known filmmakers as Mikl�s
Jancs�, K�roly Makk, M�rta M�sz�ros, and Istv�n Szab�. In addition to a
close analysis of individual films, discussion topics will include the
�newness� of the new wave in both form and content (innovations in film
language, cinematic impressionism, allegorical-parabolic forms, auteurism,
etc.), the influence of Italian, French, German and American cinema, the
relationship between film and literature, the role of film in the cultures
of Communist Eastern Europe, the state of contemporary Hungarian cinema.
The viewing of the films will be augmented by readings on Hungarian cinema,
as well as of relevant Hungarian literary works.
