Love movies and never have the time to dissect each juicy moment in The Encore following a film at TCA?
St. John’s College Tutor David Carl and IAIA Cinema Studies professor David Meyer present and dissect an international evening of film segments chosen for their visual/cinematic brilliance. This is a night for curious movie lovers, passionate cineastes and anyone who wants to know more about how and why movies work.
Cinema Narrative explores the story-telling cinema and narrative visual techniques of unique directors with recognizable visual styles. In studying their cinematic solutions to narrative movement, the afternoon of film and discussion will span over eight decades of cinema. Cinema Narrative will explore, through film clips and discussion, how these directors enrich the drama of their stories with cinematography, editing, mis-en-scene, pace and emphasis
– all the directorial arts.
There will be time for brief audience discussions of each clip and time for a thorough discussion at the end of the program.
