Select TWO of the following short questions to answer. You do NOT need to answer all of them. Grading will be based on how clearly you present the information in your answers and how much detail you provide. Given that this exam is open book/open note, I am looking for ample detail drawn from the lectures and readings. A solid answer will likely be between five and seven sentences. BE AWARE: Googling the answers will not be helpful to you here. I'm grading for specific information mentioned in the lectures and reading, so be sure you have watched all of the lectures before attempting the short answer. 1. Explain how the Cold War affected American filmmaking. 2. Explain the elements of New Wave filmmaking. 3. Explain the rise of "indie" film and what it was in reaction to.
