Honestly, it was a super easy class, but it depended on the grader for that quarter. There are around 15 films that you watch in class, and all you do is memorize the director and context. The final was an essay. The midterm was identification. took this as an elective and as an econ major. easy a

Brusutti has a very large knowledge about the history of film. The problem most people have with her is her lecturing, because she doesn't use power points or anything. It's up to you to decide what to take notes on. Her grading and tests can be a little tricky if you don't pay attention in class, but she is very helpful outside of class.

Great professor! shows meaningful films, knows A LOT about italian cinema and the related history. she expresses herself and describes the films creatively and comically at times. i loved her for film 46 as well!

Don't read the readings; you'll cover them in the section. I took her in the summer. I had 3 papers, all were 3-page long (double-spaced), NO MIDTERM (for summer at least), and the final exam she gives you a preview of how the exam will be set up. You will pass this class.

I really enjoyed Brusutti's class. She is so passionate about film, literally an encyclopedia of movies. She is also hilarious and cares about the course very much. Her passion made me more excited for the course.
