Encounter the Faustian bargains, dangerous dopplegangers, and fantastic atmospheres of Germany's golden silent film era. A fascinating, seminal, and very brief period in film history, German Expressionism was tremendously psychological in character, inspired by dreams, the subconscious and powerful symbols. The imagery, ambience and themes of Expressionism would live on to inspire such great directors as Wells and Bergman, as well as film noir. We will view film clips and discuss The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Metropolis, Waxworks, and other films. A reader will be available in the bookstore.
