- Inhalt
- This course is intended as an informal introduction to some of the very best of British and Irish cinema since the 1960s. Before the sessions, we’ll watch some of the most iconic films made by British and Irish directors, and as a group, we’ll discuss both the films themselves and their social, cultural, and political contexts. That may include social and political dramas such as Kes (1969), This is England (2006), and I, Daniel Blake (2016); scabrous black comedies like Withnail and I (1987), Trainspotting (1996), and The Banshees of Inisherin (2022); the melancholic meditations on a changing England, The Remains of the Day (1993), and Atonement (2007); horror classics like The Wicker Man (1973); and even Monty Python’s satire of religion, The Life of Brian (1979), one of comedy history’s most brilliantly controversial milestones.
Absolutely no prior knowledge of film is required: just curiosity, and a willing to check out something new. This session is a great opportunity to encounter or re-encounter some landmarks of the silver screen – from an array of genres – and to practise your conversational English while discussing them. I’m also happy to help you hone your speaking skills, which will certainly come in handy for presentations and oral exams on other courses.
