Note: This course is the two year A Level. We will not be offering the one year AS Level course.

You will then develop your understanding and be able to analyse and discuss complex films in detail. We will study cinema as a medium, as an art form and as a social and economic institution. You will explore at a vast array of films from inside and outside of Hollywood and will learn about editing and production.
