|
Films speak directly to the subconscious, allowing us to identify deeply with their characters. Because of this, film becomes a very powerful force in the development of individuals as gendered subjects, binding us to traditional gender models. This course looks at films from various cultures, from China and India to Latin America and the United States. We use readings, film clips and class discussions to analyze the way many films reinforce learned definitions of masculinity and femininity and how others contest media representation and gender stereotyping, challenging accepted film norms in both forms and content.
