For decades, films have repeatedly used novels as the starting point for their scripts. Some follow the novel closely, while others deviate far from the text. This course will explore six films inspired by novels that were considered controversial at the time they were published. Most, but not all, deal with sexual themes of one kind or another. Students will view the film on their own prior to class, and should be prepared to contribute to the discussion in class.
