Course Description and Purpose:Distinctions between a nominally American Hollywood and a supposedly separate “European cinema” represent something of a founding myth of Film Studies and of myriad film cultures around the world. However, such a distinction masks the degree to which transatlantic flows of capital, people, ideas, and products have generated myriad interconnections between the two. Accordingly, this course offers insights into the relations between Hollywood and Europe, by seeking to complicate three discourses underpinning discussions of this topic. First, that Hollywood is an American institution, and as such is separate from Europe. Second, that Hollywood cinema and European cinema are fundamentally different – even binarily opposed – entities. Third, that the dissemination of Hollywood cinema in Europe represents an effort both to impose a “foreign” culture onto an overseas territory. Students will therefore consider the extent to which Europeans have been a part of the structures of Hollywood, the stylistic exchanges linking “Hollywood” and “European” films, and the ways Hollywood has geared images of Europe and Europeans to targeted audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. In so doing, students are invited to develop their critical understandings of issues pertaining to cultural imperialism, Americanization, globalization, and the national.Course Goals and Student Learning ObjectivesHollywood & Europe aims to facilitate students’ deeper understanding of the dynamic relationships that have existed between Hollywood and Europe. It aims to do so be shedding light on the various contexts in which the interaction of Hollywood and Europe has taken place - from strategy, production, and film content to distribution, exhibition/delivery, and reception. By the end of the course, students will be expected to posses: the critical abilities to produce insightful analysis of film texts, and to explain how these films are shaped by the complex social, historical, political, and industrial relationships that have existed between Hollywood and Europe at certain historical junctures.
