PHL 135 - Philosophy in Film

Course Units: 1
(Not Offered this Academic Year) This course will be an exploration of the portrayal in film of philosophical issues, followed by a focused consideration of the issues themselves. The goal will be to stimulate students’ philosophical imaginations through film and then use that energy as the springboard for philosophical study and discussion of such issues as appearance and reality, freedom and responsibility, the existence of god, the question of whether computers are sentient, rational, and moral agents, and our moral obligations to others and to the state.
