1 CIEE Global Institute Rome Course name: The Great Beauty: Pride and Politics in the Italian Film Industry Course number: CINE 3002 ROIT Programs offering course: Rome Open Campus (Communications, Journalism and New Media Track) Language of instruction: English U.S. semester credits: 3 Contact hours: 45 Term: Fall 2017 Course Description This course will analyze the history, political environments, thematic concentrations, and economic trends of the Italian film industry, from the early 20 th century to the present. Analyses will be conducted through the readings and by looking at a selection of paradigmatic, influential, or particularly successful works that were brought forth by the big players on the Italian film market. Among these films of major cultural relevance that reflect and have in turn shaped the discourse on Italian national identity, are the Oscar-winning movie The Great Beauty (2013), shot in and dedicated to Rome; Rome, Open City (1945), by Roberto Rossellini, a classic work of Italian Neorealism; and several examples of Italian Comedies and Spaghetti Westerns. We will learn about the production history and critical reception of these works, as well as about the political and historical context in which they were produced. A visit to the Cinecittà Studios and debates with local film students / experts will complement knowledge acquired in class. Learning Objectives By the end of the course, students will be able to: Appraise the history of Italian cinema from the end of Fascism to the present; Understand social implications of Italian cinema; Analyze the representations of Italian society shown in the movies screened; Analyze the relationship between cinema and culture; Demonstrate a clear knowledge of specific vocabulary relevant to film production; Develop consistent interpretations and evaluations of movies; Demonstrate the ability to research, critically analyze and interpret film reviews published in Italian and international media Course Prerequisites

2 No specific prerequisites are needed for this course, besides a general interest in cinema as a cultural product. Methods of Instruction This course will combine lectures, class debates, walking tours, film screenings, press reviews and conversations with guest speakers. Assessment and Final Grade Weekly Film Reviews: 25% Oral Presentation: 25% Final Exam: 35% Class Participation 15% Course Requirements Weekly Film Reviews Students will be asked to write a weekly film review (five in total) by analyzing, interpreting and commenting on specific movies with clear references to the directors poetics, the historical and cultural contexts, and the technical specifications, as discussed in class. Professor will provide extensive and precise guidelines. Oral Presentation Presentations will be delivered during the last week of classes. Each student will present on one Italian movie chosen from among the ones that have not been the subject of weekly film reviews. Presentations will advance an interpretation of the movie chosen, based on an analysis of form and content, as well as the film s critical reception. Final Exam Students will take a final exam at the end of the course. The exam (multiple choice test and short essays) will include all topics analyzed in class. Class Attendance Regular class attendance is required throughout the program. Students must notify their instructor via Canvas, beforehand, if possible, if they will miss class for any reason. Students

3 are responsible for any materials covered in class in their absence. Students who miss class for medical reasons must inform the instructor and the Academic Director (or a designated staff member) and provide appropriate documentation as noted below. A make-up opportunity will be provided to the extent this is feasible. Due to the intensive nature of the block schedule, all unexcused absences will result in a lower final grade for the course. Each unexcused absence will cause 3 percentage points to be dropped from the final grade. For example, a student with an 88% final grade (B+) and 1 unexcused absence will see it reduced to 85% (B). Students who transfer from one class to another during the add/drop period will not be considered absent from the first session(s) of their new class, provided they were marked present for the first session(s) of their original class. Otherwise, the absence(s) from the original class carry over to the new class and count against the grade in that class. CIEE program minimum class attendance standards are as outlined below. Center-specific attendance policies may be more stringent than the policies stated below. The Center / Resident Director sets the specific attendance policy for each location, including how absences impact final grades. Such policies are communicated to students during orientation and via Study Center documents. In the event that the attendance policy for host institution courses differs from CIEE s policy, the more stringent policy will apply. Excessively tardy (over 15 minutes late) students will be marked absent. Students who miss class for personal travel will be marked as absent and unexcused. No make-up opportunity will be provided. An absence will only be considered excused if: a doctor s note is provided. a CIEE staff member verifies that the student was too ill to attend class. evidence is provided of a family emergency. Attendance policies also apply to any required co-curricular class excursion or event. Persistent absenteeism (students approaching 20% or more of total course hours missed, or violations of the attendance policies in more than one class) may lead to a written warning from the Academic Director or Resident Director, notification to the student s home school, and/or dismissal from the program in addition to a reduction in class grade(s).
