| Comments: | This was a fantastic course. It was intellectually stimulating. We took a deep and complex look at a vast amount of cultural and historical issues in the history of German Cinema. We also took a trip to see Murnau's Nosferatu, played in a local church, at night, with a band providing the backing music. This was a wonderful experience. I also really enjoyed taking part in the Berlinale film festival. We went to several screenings at the festival and attended press conferences with the directors and actors. |
