The document discusses the German Expressionist film movement between 1920-1933. It provides background on the rise of the German film industry after WWI and restrictions on foreign films. The movement began with The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari in 1920 and was led by directors like Robert Wiene, F.W. Murnau, and Fritz Lang. German Expressionist films were characterized by nightmarish sets, exaggerated lighting and surreal styles. The movement declined in the late 1920s due to high budgets and Hollywood's recruitment of German talent, though it continue to influence later American film noir.

German Expressionism
German Expressionist films of the 1920s used stylized, non-realistic sets and lighting techniques to convey mood and deeper meaning with limited budgets. These films dealt with dark psychological themes rather than standard genres. While short-lived, Expressionism influenced later films through its artistic control of scenery and lighting. German filmmakers who emigrated to Hollywood in the 1930s brought Expressionist techniques and influenced genres like horror and film noir. Elements of German Expressionism remain common in modern films through its legacy.
What is German Expressionism?
The document provides information about German Expressionism, including:
- It was a reaction against conservative academies and embraced distorted forms and exaggerated colors.
- Artists wanted to startle viewers with direct, frank works in various media.
- Many artists served in WWI and returned disillusioned by the war and economic/political turmoil in Germany.
- The movement reflected humanistic concerns and ambivalence about modernity through the early 1920s.
German Expressionism
German Expressionism originated in Germany in the early 20th century as a unique style of filmmaking. It is characterized by strong contrasts, shadows, asymmetric angles, and high contrast lighting. These techniques create an unsettling and disorienting atmosphere on screen. German Expressionist films often dealt with themes of social decay, corruption, and paranoia. The style had a major influence on Hollywood and American film noir after many German filmmakers fled the rise of Nazism in the 1930s.
German Expressionism
German expressionism began as a creative movement in Germany during World War 1 and spread to other art forms like film across Europe. It was characterized by stylized sets, dramatic lighting, and themes of madness and insanity. Notable director Fritz Lang helped establish the film noir genre, transferring expressionist techniques like unique camera angles and maze-like plots to American crime dramas. Film noir in turn influenced modern horror films through its lighting and psychological themes.

The document outlines key aspects of Soviet montage theory and how it was shaped by the political context in Russia after the Bolshevik Revolution. It provides examples of famous Soviet montage sequences and discusses how the technique was later adapted by modern filmmakers.
The Theory of Montage:
Montage is a film editing technique developed in the Soviet Union in the 1920s as a propaganda tool. It involves juxtaposing short shots to imply a relationship between them and derive new meanings. Sergei Eisenstein was a pioneer who believed montage should provoke intellectual thought in viewers. Directors like Pudovkin used montage to imply narrative through contrasting shots rather than actors' behavior. Montage aims to impact viewers intellectually and emotionally through conflicts created between visual elements and a new implied meaning. It remains influential for modern filmmakers in constructing meaning through intentional shot sequencing.
French New Wave
The French New Wave was an influential film movement that emerged in France in the late 1950s. A group of young film critics-turned-directors rejected classical filmmaking styles in favor of personal expression, deep composition, long takes, and location shooting. They drew inspiration from American films and aimed to bring a sense of realism and flexibility to cinema. Some of the most influential French New Wave films included Breathless, The 400 Blows, and Jules and Jim. The movement had a significant impact on global filmmaking styles.
German expressionism
German Expressionism was an influential but overlooked art movement in early 20th century Germany that explored emotional and psychological themes through distorted and exaggerated settings and characters. It influenced many films, plays, paintings and other artistic mediums. Expressionism grew popular in the 1920s but declined under Nazi rule, as Hitler favored classical styles and Expressionism was deemed anti-German. Many German Expressionist artists fled to America and continued developing the style, which went on to influence later films noir and Hollywood works through immigrant artists and techniques. Key Expressionist films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Nosferatu helped establish the horror and science fiction genres.
History of Film
The history of film began in the 1880s with the invention of the first movie camera. Most early films produced before 1930 were silent. One of the earliest films was Roundhay Garden Scene filmed in 1888 in England. The Lumière brothers later developed the Cinématographe device for filming, printing, and projecting movies. The first public film showing occurred in Paris in 1895. As the silent film era continued, filmmakers began experimenting with special effects and animated films to enhance viewers' experiences. By the early 1900s, color film was also being developed, as the motion picture industry continued to evolve new techniques.
Auteur theory
This document provides information about auteur theory in film. It discusses how auteur theory views the director as the primary author or "auteur" of a film, with the director's personal style and recurring themes appearing across their body of work. The document traces the origins of auteur theory through the work of French critics in the 1950s-60s and discusses how it gave more power to directors. It also examines some criticisms of auteur theory and considerations of other potential "auteurs" like producers, actors, or stars. Overall, the document serves as a useful introduction and overview of auteur theory in cinema.
Introduction to film genre study #1 film noir
Film noir refers to dark, gritty crime films made in the 1940s-1950s that depicted a bleak, cynical worldview. These films were influenced by pulp fiction of the time and explored themes of postwar despair, alienation, and existentialism. While not intentionally created as a genre, film noir is characterized by certain visual styles, settings, character archetypes like the hardboiled detective, and themes of fatalism. Scholars debate whether film noir should be considered a genre defined by conventions or a mode that produces feelings of unease in viewers.
Patrick Mahony - Psychoanalytic Theory & Film
Psychoanalytic theory views human nature as driven by unconscious forces from early childhood. Sigmund Freud developed psychoanalysis in the 1890s as a method of psychotherapy using free association to bring unconscious desires and memories to light. Psychoanalytic film theory applies these concepts to argue that viewers identify with the all-seeing camera and characters, gaining pleasure and insights into unconscious motivations from this mirror-like experience of watching movies.
Belton (16) film school generation
This document discusses the rise of film schools and their influence on Hollywood in the late 20th century. It describes how French film critics-turned-directors launched the New Wave movement in the 1950s-60s without formal training. American film schools then grew in the 1960s-70s, training a new generation of directors like Spielberg, Lucas, and Coppola. Hollywood recognized this generation's appeal to younger audiences and began hiring them to direct big-budget genre films that were profitable. These directors paid homage to earlier films through references and allusions in their works.
Soviet montage (1924 30)
This document discusses Soviet Montage, a film editing technique developed in the Soviet Union between 1924-1930. It highlights key Soviet filmmakers like Sergei Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov who pioneered montage through techniques like juxtaposition to emphasize ideas and advance propaganda goals. Montage became an essential filmmaking style of the time period that shaped Soviet cinema through its emphasis on rapid editing and nonlinear storytelling.
Italian neorealism 2019 new
Italian Neorealism developed as a major film movement in Italy after World War II when the country aimed to restart with a liberal ideology. Neorealist filmmakers sought to tell stories of everyday peoples' lives using non-professional actors, filming on location with minimal resources. Vittorio De Sica's 1948 film Bicycle Thieves is considered exemplary of the movement in its portrayal of the working class and themes of poverty and desperation in postwar Italy. The movement gained international attention when Roberto Rossellini's Rome, Open City won awards at Cannes in 1946, establishing Italy's cinematic "golden era".
Film theories
Laura Mulvey developed the theory that in films, the audience views the narrative from the perspective of a heterosexual male, and the camera objectifies female characters who experience the story secondarily by identifying with male characters. Mulvey is a British feminist film theorist born in 1941 who worked at the British Film Institute and currently teaches at Birkbeck, University of London.
History of film- media timeline
This document provides a history of film and various film genres from 1895 to modern day.

- Ideology perpetuates existing power structures by making them seem natural.
- Works of art and media reflect the class interests of their time and can challenge or maintain the status quo.
- Material conditions directly impact people's lives and analyzing these is important for understanding society and enacting positive change.
Film theory
This document provides an overview of several film theories, including early film theory, realism film theory, auteur theory, and feminist film theory. Early film theorists like Hugo Munsterberg and Rudolf Arnheim viewed films as a unique art form that transforms normal visual perception through techniques like editing and camera angles. Realism film theory holds that films encode reality in subjective ways and viewers judge films based on their own life experiences. Auteur theory posits that some directors impose their personal vision and style to achieve an auteur status. Feminist film theory critiques the stereotypical passive representations of women in classic Hollywood films and calls for more positive portrayals.
Mise en scene
The dominant contrast is Enid, dressed in bright blue. After taking her in, the eye is drawn to:
- Seymour, who is also a large object in focus. As the other person in the conversation, he is an important secondary focus.
- The kitchen backdrop and appliances, which provide context for the setting of the scene.
So in summary, after Enid, the eye moves between Seymour as the other character, and the kitchen setting around them, which provides information about where this interaction is taking place.
Auteur theory
The document discusses auteur theory, which focuses on analyzing films based on the director's personal creative vision and stylistic choices rather than just the genre or studio production process. It originated in 1950s France as a way to elevate American and French films to an art form by highlighting the director's role. Key aspects of auteur theory include analyzing a director's technical competence, coherent personal style, and consistent worldview across multiple films. The document provides several examples of iconic directors and their recognizable stylistic traits, such as John Ford's use of landscape and Alfred Hitchcock's shot patterns. It also notes some critiques of auteur theory, such as its minimization of collaborative filmmaking.
German expressionism, film noir & horror
German Expressionism originated as an artistic movement in early 20th century Germany that influenced cinema through its use of abstract and non-realistic sets and scenarios exploring themes of insanity and a hostile world. Key characteristics of Expressionist films included distorted perspectives and sets designed to reflect a protagonist's state of mind. Expressionism later influenced the film noir genre, featuring cynical characters in dark stories. Famous German Expressionist filmmakers like Fritz Lang, Robert Wiene, and their films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Metropolis had lasting impacts and influenced later directors such as Tim Burton.
Film Styles
The document discusses different styles and types of films including realism, classicism, and formalism. It provides characteristics of each style and describes how formalist films emphasize technique and expression, classical films have believable narratives, and realist films attempt to reproduce reality with minimal distortion. The document also discusses genres, film roles including directors, producers and screenwriters, and narrative structures such as classical, formalist, and documentary.
The history of cinema
The history of cinema can be broken down into seven ages:
1) The Pioneering Age from 1896-1912 saw the development of early motion picture technology and short films without narratives.
2) The Silent Age from 1913-1927 featured the emergence of Hollywood and use of techniques like camera movement to develop stories.
3) The Transition Age from 1928-1932 was when films moved from silent to adding synchronized sound.
4) The Hollywood Studio Age from 1932-1946 was dominated by major studios producing genre films.

Russian avant garde (new)
There were three main movements in the Russian avant-garde: Constructivism, Suprematism, and Rayonism between 1913-1920. Constructivism was influenced by Cubism and aimed to link art with concrete ideas using three-dimensional forms. Key artists included Tatlin, Rodchenko, and Gabo. Suprematism founded by Malevich was purely abstract geometric painting seeking to liberate art. Rayonism by Larionov and Goncharova synthesized Cubism and Futurism using diagonal beams of color. All three movements rejected representation and sought new forms of abstract, non-objective art.
Theatre of absurd beckett
The document provides context on Samuel Beckett and his play Waiting for Godot. It discusses how Beckett contributed to the Theatre of the Absurd movement in response to the horrors of World War II. Waiting for Godot features no plot, vague characters, and incoherent dialogue to reflect the absurdity and meaninglessness of the human condition. The play was highly unconventional for its time in removing realism and replacing it with "bits and scraps" of language and dialogue.
11 the conceptual elements
The document discusses the conceptual elements of design that are used to visualize ideas. It begins by explaining that cognition occurs through associations between a perceptual code and stored information. There are five conceptual elements: point, line, plane, volume, and conceptual space. A point represents position and forms a line through motion. A line has length and direction but no width or height. A plane is bounded by lines and has length and width. A volume is bounded by planes and has length, width and height. These conceptual elements are imagined and used to represent ideas through visualization in design.
Constructivism
Constructivism was an avant-garde art movement that originated in Russia in the 1910s-1920s. It sought to reject the past and create an art that promoted order, unity, and peace. Key artists included Wassily Kandinsky, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, El Lissitzky, and Alexander Rodchenko, who created reductive works using basic geometric elements that explored the relationship between art and its social function.
Absurd drama
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like depression and anxiety.
Expressionism
Expressionism was an artistic style that attempted to depict subjective emotions and responses to reality rather than objective reality through distortion, exaggeration, and vivid application of formal elements. It aimed to strongly impose the artist's own sensibilities and feelings about the world rather than reproduce objective impressions. Expressionism sought intense expression of ideas and human criticism through aesthetics rather than realistic harmony of forms.
Constructivism
Constructivism emerged in Russia in 1913 and promoted the use of machine-made parts in architecture. Constructivist art was characterized by abstraction, geometry, and experimentation rather than emotion. Constructivist architecture flourished in the Soviet Union in the 1920s-1930s, combining advanced technology with communist ideals. The iconic Melnikov House in Moscow features two interlocking cylindrical volumes with numerous hexagonal windows and an efficient yet creative design that incorporated light, space, and minimal materials.
Constructivism
Constructivism originated in Russia after World War 1 as an artistic movement that rejected autonomous art and sought to use art as a catalyst for social change. Key figures included Vladimir Tatlin, Alexander Rodchenko, and El Lissitzky. Tatlin's Monument to the Third International from 1919-1920 came to symbolize the movement's focus on functional, dynamic works of art that could inspire social change. Constructivism emphasized usefulness over aesthetics and sought to bring art to the masses.
CONSTRUCTIVISM
This document summarizes the Constructivism art movement from 1919-1934 in Russia. It discusses key Russian Constructivist artists like El Lissitzky, Vladimir Tatlin, and Lyubov Popova who believed art should serve practical purposes and promoted the use of industrial materials. They incorporated photography, photomontage, and graphic design into their works. Lissitzky in particular sought to combine Suprematist painting with architecture by creating three-dimensional environments using two-dimensional shapes. Constructivism had a significant influence on design and architecture in both Russia and Germany in the early 20th century.

German Expressionist films developed in Germany after World War 1 using unconventional styles to portray emotions during a difficult time. The films were unique due to limited resources and an isolated film industry. Expressionism influenced later horror and film noir genres with its dark moods and sets. Notable films include Metropolis and Nosferatu. While Expressionism declined in the late 1920s as filmmakers emigrated to Hollywood, its themes and styles continued to influence many famous directors and films thereafter.
German expressionism
German expressionism was an artistic movement in Germany between 1910-1930 that portrayed psychological states through distorted forms and unnatural colors. It began as a reaction to World War I and the isolation Germany felt, but gained international popularity after the war. Notable films like Fritz Lang's Metropolis used expressionist techniques like stark contrasts, shadows, and irregular shapes to depict inner emotions rather than realistic surfaces. This new style of filmmaking influenced genres like horror and film noir and continues to impact modern cinema through conventions adopted from early German expressionist works.
German expressionism
German Expressionism was an early 20th century creative movement in Germany that influenced filmmaking. Fritz Lang was a influential German filmmaker known for expressionist films like Metropolis and M. German Expressionist films were popular domestically during World War 1 and gained international popularity after the war. The style was known for its use of shadows, sharp lines, and moods of pessimism that later influenced the American film noir genre.
German expressionism
German Expressionism was an artistic genre that originated in Germany in the 1920s-1930s known for its use of high contrast lighting and asymmetric compositions to depict distorted realities. Fritz Lang was a prominent German Expressionist filmmaker who directed the influential futuristic film Metropolis in 1927. The socio-economic context of Germany at the time was one of turmoil following World War 1, with widespread poverty and national reflection on the country's direction. As fascism rose, many liberal Expressionist artists fled Germany and immigrated to the United States to escape Nazism and continue their work, influencing later Western and American cinema such as Film Noir.
44 - Expressionist Film Posters
The document discusses the use of German Expressionist style in film posters during the late silent film era in Germany. It notes that Expressionist style became strongly linked to films dealing with themes of the fantastic, horrific, or futuristic. Two key films highlighted are The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919) and Nosferatu (1922), which used grotesque figures and unusual typography in their posters. By the early 1930s, the use of Expressionist posters declined as the Nazi party rose to power and enforced greater conformity in art.
Lecture 12 art and industry
German Expressionist cinema of the 1920s differed from the Hollywood studio system in several key ways: it did not adopt the vertical integration model and directors maintained greater creative control, it was more closely connected to the artistic Expressionist movement in Europe, and actors were more concerned with artistic reputation than celebrity publicity. Expressionist films often featured Expressionist themes of madness, paranoia, and subjective perspectives through their use of stylized architecture, geometric forms, and stark contrasts of light and shadow.

The history of horror
The document provides a history of the horror genre in film from the 1920s to the 2000s. It discusses several eras and key developments:
- German Expressionism in the 1920s-1930s pioneered the use of shadows and stylistic techniques that influenced later films. Notable films included The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
- Universal Pictures dominated the 1930s-1940s with classics like Dracula and Frankenstein that established iconic monsters. Psychological horror emerged with films like Cat People.
- The 1950s saw a blend of science fiction and horror genres with movies like Godzilla. Directors used gimmicks to attract audiences.
- Alfred Hitchcock and films like Psycho
Influences on horror genre
The contemporary horror genre has been influenced by German Expressionism and Film Noir, which shaped how we perceive horror films through their visual styles. German Expressionism arose in the early 20th century in response to Germany's isolation during WWI and featured abstract sets and low lighting. Fritz Lang was among the most influential directors of this era, with films like Metropolis and M that blended expressionism with early elements of film noir. Film noir emerged in the 1940s-50s and was known for its low-key black and white visuals inspired by expressionism. Modern horror films still draw from the styles of expressionism and noir through elements like abstract settings and "femme fatale" characters.
German expressionism and film noir
German Expressionism arose in the 1920s in Germany as a reaction to World War 1. It used stylistic techniques like sharp angles, dramatic shadows, and high contrast lighting to create a sense of paranoia and unease. One of its most famous films, Metropolis, showed the divisions in German society between the upper and working classes. These German Expressionist films influenced the later American film noir genre of the 1940s, which also used low-key lighting and shadows to portray themes of distrust and corruption. Elements of both these earlier cinematic styles can still be seen in modern horror films through the use of lighting, shadows, and urban settings.
History of horror
The genre of horror began in the 1800s with silent films like Georges Méliès' 1896 short film "Le Manoir Du Diable". Universal Studios produced many iconic horror films in the 1920s-1930s like "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" and "The Phantom of the Opera". Sound was introduced to films in 1927, allowing music to build tension. Famous 1930s horrors included Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Mummy. The 1950s saw a rise in psychological thrillers from Britain and America like Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film "Psycho". German Expressionist films of the 1920s like "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" used dramatic lighting and reflections to create
