The best aspects of this course included the interesting presentations and films chosen by the instructor. Students appreciated the readings that were assigned along with the films and found that they helped make discussions about the films more interesting. Some students felt that course time could have been used more effectively with lecture or class discussions instead of student presentations. Many students expressed that there should be few improvements made. Prospective students should know that it is recommended to have a background in film and that the course required allocating time to watch the films.
