'This historical survey will chart the cinema's life from the arrival of sound. We will cover the triumph and collapse of the Hollywood studio system, the prewar French cinema, the postwar Italian Neo-Realists, New Waves, Independents, and contemporary world cinema, all with an eye toward shifting aesthetics and exhibition/distribution practices (especially in terms of the digital).'
