We all have our favorite movie, right? Maybe we have a few favorite movies. But how can one person love a movie, and another person detest the same movie? What is it about those films that we like or dislike? Film analysis is the process in which a film is examined in terms of mise-en-scene, cinematography, sound, and editing.
Martin Scorsese once said that “movies are a door to knowledge—knowledge of society, knowledge of history, knowledge of art.” Movies reflect who we are as a people: what we value, question, fear, love. Who we have been and who we could become. In 1990, with fellow directors--Woody Allen, Robert Altman, Francis Ford Coppola, Clint Eastwood, Stanley Kubrick, George Lucas, Sydney Pollack, Robert Redford, and Steven Spielberg—Martin Scorsese established the Film Foundation to preserve and protect films in the United States. Since 1990, the Film Foundation has preserved and restored over 450 endangered films that might have otherwise been lost. Additionally, The Film Foundation created The Story of Movies project, the first-ever integrated interdisciplinary curriculum to expose new generations to classic cinema and to teach them about the cultural, artistic, and historical significance of film.
