The French Jewish Experience on The Silver Screen Dr. Eric Goldman
Mondays, April 20, 27, May 4, 11, 18, June 1 6:15 – 9:00 PM Some of
France’s most celebrated filmmakers have been Jews who trained their
lenses on the complexities of life in their community. Claude Berri,
Diane Kurys, Claude Lelouch and Gerard Oury built stories around
anti-Semitism, the Nazi occupation, the courage of their Christian
countrymen and Arab-Jewish relations. This course will focus on how
these directors portrayed the realities of French Jews through the
screening of some of their most famous films, including The Mad
Adventures of Rabbi Jacob, For a Woman, Little Jerusalem and They
Are Everywhere. *Movies will be screened in segments with breaks -
students are recommended to watch the full film on their own.
