Welcome to HUM 4410

Hi,

I'll be your instructor for six weeks as we explore Film as Art. This should be a fun course. The book is fairly big to cover in six weeks so I'm not requiring that you read it all. I will indicate which pages to read .Of course if you have time, read it. It is a good book, and as the title of this course indicates it, does go into the philosophical realm.

This is not a philosophy class however, so I've tried to keep it down to a practical level, with not too much theory. You will be watching one film a week and critiquing it. It is your choice as to what you watch, but it would be best to try to pick films from different periods; if you can find a silent movie by all means watch one.

So again welcome. I am here to help you succeed. The best way to contact me is by email roberg@ameschristian.org You can also phone 352-379-5642
