SPAN 260 - Spanish Film and Conversation


3 Credits
Through a selection of Latin American and Peninsular films students will “travel” to each of the Hispanic countries represented in the full-length features screened. They will watch and discuss the life of people in their daily situations: eating, cooking, playing, getting married and raising families, and compare these issues with those of the so-called “American way of life” portrayed in Hollywood cinema. Students will learn the basic terminology to write a film review in Spanish. Emphasis will be on oral skills as well as on writing short reports.  This course is complemented by the lectures, discussions and screenings of the Annual Foreign Language Film Festival.
 
Prerequisite(s):  ,   or permission of instructor.
