SCRN 125 - International Filmmakers and Hollywood

The increasing presence of foreign filmmakers in Hollywood since the 1990s raises provocative questions about film as art and commodity, cultural domination and resistance, transnational labor flows, and the role of screen cultures in global society. When filmmakers from other cinemas of the world work in the Hollywood system, do they sign on to make “American” films? Is the aesthetic and cultural identity of their prior work maintained or transformed? Are there precedents for the global talent flows associated with Hollywood today? This course considers non-US filmmakers (primarily directors) who, having been successful in national cinemas, access the Hollywood system and create works in it. Selected filmmakers/films from European, East Asian, and Latin American cinemas will be studied, including Fritz Lang, John Woo, and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu.
