Film Analysis Course | The Language of Cinema

Every child learns to read words in school, but we never learn to read images. In this film analysis course, 'The Language of Cinema,' film teacher Twan Arts challenges the audience to look (and listen) more closely to moving images. Through a multitude of film scenes—both classic and contemporary, familiar and obscure—he delves into the rich history of cinema.
