This year marks the 100th year since the first ever university-level course in Film Studies in the US was offered at Columbia University. To mark that anniversary, we are reflecting on how Film Studies has developed as a scholarly discipline over the last century and what challenges it faces in our rapidly expanding digital landscape. What does it mean to approach moving image media theoretically, historically, and philosophically today? What has been the legacy of Film Studies at Columbia and how might the field evolve in the next hundred years?
Panelists: Peter Biskind (Easy Riders, Raging Bulls), Molly Haskell (From Reverence to Rape: The Treatment of Women in the Movies), Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull)
