The first three questions are required of every student, followed by your choice of three questions from a list of five, totaling six questions for this exam.
- The Best Years of Our Lives was the quintessential film for returning WWII veterans and its three protagonists represented a significant percentage of the real-life veterans at that time. What forces in the lives of these characters (Al Stephenson, Homer Parish, and Fred Derry) illustrated so well the problems veterans faced upon their return to civilian life?
- a. What are the elements of an iconic classic film such as The Grapes of Wrath, Citizen Kane, Casablanca, Best Years, Sunset Boulevard, and On the Waterfront?
- All these films were made under the Classical Hollywood Studio System and yet two, Citizen Kane and On the Waterfront, broke barriers that predated the end of the Studio System and are in various ways more representative of the Independent filmmakers who took over Hollywood beginning in the 1960s. What differentiated Kane and Waterfront then from the rules and methods of Hollywood filmmaking in 1941 and 1954 respectively?
- Cinema Exiles: From Hitler to Hollywood depicted the circumstances under which more than 800 Jewish emigrants fled Europe and came to Hollywood. Many of them succeeded, but for some not as auspiciously in the 1930s as in the 1940s through the 1960s. However, the movement itself is marked by the way in which these profoundly talented artists changed forever the nature of American Cinema?
Explain how and why this happened, illustrating your arguments with examples of the directors, film composers, actors, producers, and other contributors to American Cinema?
