All New Seminar! WHAT INSPIRES AN ARTIST? EUROPEAN FILM MOVEMENTS: 1920-2010, 180 min. What inspires the visual and narrative construction of a Scorsese, P.T. Anderson, Miyazaki, Coen or Assayas film? The styles of today’s masters can be traced back to the European film movements. Whether you want to understand the impulses and implications behind surrealism, German Expressionism, French Poetic Realism, Italian Neorealism, Dogme 95 or even today’s “mumblecore” scene, film consultant Thomas Ethan Harris will illustrate how classic film movements continue to influence artists today.[Spielberg Theatre]
