Slapstick, screwball, and romantic are among the stories in this lineup of films made in the 1930s and 1940s. This was during an era when film studios reigned supreme, the star system brought in fans, and the focus was on storytelling, clear narrative, and character development. Among those featured are Myrna Loy, James Stewart, Katharine Hepburn and brilliant directors such as Howard Hawks. All films are from the instructor’s personal collection; none previously shown in a class. Correct email address is important as students will receive email at least once a week with film background and other film-related news. Limit 35.
