Comments
You will learn the transition of film coming from Hollywood all the way to Bollywood. This course is very tough and you have to memorise a lot of stuff. The definition qns in finals come from the recommended book.
This course is really tough and only take it if you have interest in it. Do not pon lectures as the essay writing comes from the scenes in the films shown in the lectures. There is no recorded lecture.
