Please find the links to classical Russian films in all genres in the External Links section. I want everyone to watch at least three full-time films, or one longer series, or many shorts like cartoons. You can concentrate either on one genre (like comedy) or look at how Russian life is presented in different genres and different times in the history of Russian cinema. I want you to look both at representations of Russian life and how cinematographers seek to represent it for the purposes of their art.
Questions
1) I encourage you to read all the comments and descriptions on YouTube and make sure you understand when the film was made and what was going on in Russia at that time. Please always refer to particular periods, don't assume "Soviet period" was always the same.
2) As with photos, write down your observations of power and authority, gender roles, family and work relations, and class issues as well as emotions, humor and bitterness. What does cinema tell us about how people used to live in Russia?
3) How is Russian cinema different from other national cinematic traditions that you are familiar with?
