KNSS 3410 - Sport in Film

3 hours

This course will allow students to critically examine the ways in which our culture views sport through film. Students will have the opportunity to study and critique our “obsession” with this prominent component of our society by analyzing the common themes, tropes, and coventions used to reinforce cultural ideologies in sports films. Students will explore how film presents its message through both language, visulas (costunmin, setting, and cinematography) and sound (musi, sound effects, silence, etc.).
