France had just come through the 1968 student protests, the dissolution of the De Gaulle Republic, and the waning of the New Wave. We will view six French movies, across each decade, to once again act as guides through the years. We will discuss social conditions, directors, actors and genres in our analysis of the movies. Participants will watch films online through streaming platforms or on DVD, and join a Zoom session for group discussions. Please watch Chloe in the Afternoon, directed by Eric Rohmer, prior to the first meeting.
