What is Film Studies?

“Film studies is a critical discipline that promotes serious reflection on the movies and the place of film in culture.  It is part of a rich and complex history that overlaps the critical work in many other fields such as literary studies, philosophy, sociology, and art history.” 

Corrigan, T., & White, P. (2004).  The film experience. Boston: Bedford/St. Martin's.
