Product Description
You can learn a great deal about French culture, history, politics and social problems by studying French cinema, and the discussion and analysis of specific films is the ideal way to deepen that knowledge. SEPTI?ME ART shows you how to use language in a meaningful way through the study of film and the exploration of the different cultural aspects portrayed in both popular and "high art" films. By going on a culturally-authentic, chronological journey through French cinema, the text challenges you to develop not only better conversational skills, but important writing and critical thinking skills as well-resulting in a deeper, more meaningful understanding of both French language and culture.
