Cinema provides a matchless repository of social data: how people looked, behaved, spoke; the way they approached work and leisure and social interaction. All these things are preserved accidentally enough - almost miraculously indeed - in the "amber" of film. The early-to-middle years of the last century were a very rich time for British cinema. In the 1930s we have the invention of documentary filmmaking as an art-form (Grierson, the GPO film unit, Mass Observation). At the same time, Alfred Hitchcock in a series of early masterpieces ( The Manxman, Blackmail, The 39 Steps, The Lady Vanishes ) has given us his unique take on class in British society. In the next decade, on into the Second World War, we have the magisterial films of Powell & Pressburger, and of Humphrey Jennings to think about; and in the late 40s and early 50s, the famous Ealing Comedies.
There is a lot to be explored here: and, fortunately, some very good reading to go with it. All the film material is available on recently published DVD editions of high quality. We will aim to see a film per week and discuss it in detail, at the same time linking our exploration, where possible, to the popular and "high" literature of the period, for example, works by Auden and Orwell, and to the social and ideological debates current at the time.
The themes we shall be looking at include:
