Session #3: Opera Genres in Film (Part1) – Expressionism, Romanticism, Nationalism

Thursday, August 6th, 7:30 PM NY Time 

The greatest directors have – wittingly or not – adapted techniques from opera in telling their stories… beyond the use of music (although that too, certainly) and into how characters and settings are presented. How do various genres play out in both opera and film?

Special Guests: Nico MuhlyHolly Goldberg Sloan, & Gary Rosen

Films discussed include: Top Hat (Sandrich); Alexander Nevsky (Eisenstein); Triumph of the Will (Riefenstahl); Psycho (Hitchcock); Star Wars (any and all, Lucas et al.)
