Icebreaker Question First, tell us your name. Then, if you could require everyone in the world to see one movie, what would that movie be? Finally, if you could also place one movie in a black box deep in a cave, so that no one in the world would ever have to see it again... what movie would it be?

Early Hollywood Cinema: 1905 to 1915 From New Jersey to L.A. (smart move) The first studios create movie industry oligopoly; vertical integration First “features” (averaging 75 minutes) Conventions of Continuity Editing: – Intertitles, enlarged facial expressions – Intercutting: showing how two actions are occurring simultaneously – Contiguity editing: showing spaces are connected

European Cinema in the 1920s German Expressionism, French Impressionism, Soviet Montage Formal experimentation and innovation Emergence of the Avant-Garde: Films begin to achieve status of “art”

Hollywood in the Late Silent Era: 1920 to 1927 Post WWI: Hollywood takes control Theater boom Big budgets, industrial production Delineation of genres The “star” system
