Welcome, Bienvenue, Bienvenidos, Wilkommen, Benvenuti, Välkommen. This course is more than just watching movies from around the world. We will discuss the culture, beliefs and way of life as reflected in each film, as well as its cinematic values and director’s intentions. We will start with Blancanieves from Spain and travel east, circling the globe and ending with the United States. Blancanieves in Spanish means Snow White in English. The film is free on tubitv.com. A full list of the 12 films will be provided prior to the first class.
