Regardless of their origins, "All good films teach us lessons about human behavior," says Italian publisher Francesco Bogliari. This minor will lead students in exploration of the art of filmic storytelling, the history of cinema, and the social impacts of the movies. This minor is a natural companion to many majors, including English, History, Women’s and Gender Studies, Psychology, Journalism, etc.
