SUBJECT : TEACHING FILM

A subject uniquely-near to us. Can film be taught? Yes. Should film be taught? That's up to the instructor. An instructor we'd never let down is filmmaker Guy Maddin who has made teaching a subtle advocation for the past several years. The film students at Harvard were exposed to this genius artist, begging the questions -- do advanced degrees make the film teacher? Is teaching an art? And what are film students truly signing on for when they study a craft and history that's concise and finite-enough to learn autodidactically? In the hands of Professor Maddin, learning film is merely an excuse to go to class.
