    <p><strong>The Independent Film Movement</strong></p>
    <p>With its genesis in the experimental films of the 1920s, through Cassavetes, the French New Wave and <em>Easy Rider </em>in the 1960s, this course primarily addresses films under the auspices of the independent film movement beginning circa 1970.<span>  </span>From its reaction to Hollywood blockbusters to its dilution into the pseudo-independent studio films of the 1990s, we will examine the definition, method, and social context of the movement with iconoclasts like Germaine Dulac, Oscar Micheaux, Stan Brakhage, John &amp; Faith Hubley, Agnes Varda, John Cassavetes, John Sayles, John Waters, Lizzie Borden, Spike Lee, Tarantino, among others.</p>

    <div>
    <div>Students of economics and finance should be aware of crises, bubbles, and frauds. Readings, documentaries, videos, and data will be used to examine examples of these phenomena. Examples likely to be examined include Enron and Ponzi schemes (fraud), tech stocks of the 1990s, meme stocks, housing, cryptocurrencies (bubbles), and the 1930s Great Depression, the 2008-2009 Financial Crisis, and Covid-19 (crises). </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>This course is entirely online with an asynchronous format. There are no synchronous meetings. Students will independently engage with the assigned material and submit weekly quizzes and assignments with specified deadlines.
    
    Contact Professor Lamdin at <a href="mailto:lamdin@umbc.edu">lamdin@umbc.edu</a> for a previous course syllabus and any questions.</div>
