Film Studies

Julien Suaudeau
Director of Film Studies


The Film Studies Program at ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æÓ°Òô provides students with opportunities to study the history, theory, and criticism of moving images, with an emphasis on the analysis and interpretation of cinema as a key form in modern visual culture.

Film Studies is a ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æÓ°Òô minor, with students taking a majority of courses on the Bryn Mawr campus while also able to take advantage of courses offered in the Tri-College consortium and at the University of Pennsylvania.

The program emphasizes film as a formal system with its own set of clearly identifiable properties and conventions, which nevertheless invites unique opportunities for interdisciplinary study. Course offerings are drawn from Literatures in English, History of Art, Italian, German, Russian, Spanish, History, and the Creative and Performing Arts, giving students access to a range of interpretive methodologies, national cinemas, and film styles and genres.
