TuTh, 5-9pm, B209<\/p>\n
Note that each class session is four hours; this is to give time for movie screenings. Screenings will be the second half of each class (there will be a popcorn\/snack rota); the first half of class will be a discussion of the film screened in the previous class. <\/p>\n
Blog posts are due either Monday evening or Wednesday evening (i.e. the night before class). You may choose which of the two films you write on each week, but you must write one blog post per week. Comments (on two of your classmates’ blogs) can be written at any time during the week.<\/p>\n
