| Josef von Sternberg and Marlene Dietrich |
Revered and reviled in his own time, Sternberg is notable for a series of films in which he directed Marlene Dietrich and is renowned for his lighting, mise en scene, staging, and costume design.
Sternberg's surviving silent films are remarkable examples of the silent art form, and his gangster film during this period launched the gangster film cycle of the following decade.
Students will view six of Josef von Sternberg's films throughout the class and learn how to evaluate, analyze, and synthesize each film.
