Heard On The Lot:

The Total Immersion Program is so hands-on. That's what made the difference for me in getting gigs. I was able to start working right away and that was a real head start to my career.

Film Noir

LOF4: Wednesdays, Jan. 9 - Feb. 27, 2013
Instructor: Lance Rhoades
8 Sessions - 7 - 10pm
Tuition: $295.00 - 24 Clock Hrs.

Characterized by shadowy scenes in mysterious and corrupt urban underworlds, where unwitting tough guys fall for devious femme fatales, Film Noir is one of the great American film styles. This course explores the rich history of Film Noir (and the closely related Gangster and Detective Film) from its heyday as B-movie entertainment in the 1940s, through its critical acclaim in the 1950s and 60s, to its resurgence and revision over the last thirty years.
We will discuss several classics, including The Maltese Falcon and Double Indemnity, and trace the Noir elements found in relatively recent films such as Red Rock West and The Last Seduction.
