My favorite course
When I was at the U of C a few years ago my favorite option course was:
Film 380 F(2-3)
The Art of the Cinema
Intended for the non-specialist student, this course is designed to foster an appreciation of film culture and an understanding of a broad range of cinematic art.
Basically all you did was watch different movies every week and talk about how they transformed the movie industry. The final exam consisted of 100 or so phrases and you had to tell what movie it was from:
Example: A sled named Rosebud.............answer Citizen Kane
