...understand film history), to hilarious German romantic comedies from the 1930s (unfortunately, turns out they’re totally pro-Nazi). “Munchhausen” is a psychedelic dreamscape of circa-1945 slapstick, and the Oscar-winning “Mrs. Miniver” will make you laugh right before you start to cry. (Seriously.)More importantly, the course material touches on philosophy, postmodernism, and theories of mass media and communication. For the Nazis, image was king–and their use of the movies to further political ends provides a piercing insight into the sinister possibilities...
...Social Psychology,” is like that cute fat girl who went on a diet: all the essentials without the fluff. Your fearless leader will be the superb Daniel Wegner, who re-takes the reigns after a year on leave doing research. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll cringe at mildly inappropriate anecdotes.

Checking into a Manhattan hotel, he is accompanied by the manager into the elevator...
...staff of more than 10,000 worldwide. "If you really want to understand the essence of our company, look at the society we've built, with our own rules, our own laws. It shocks me how much the culture of a company can move it forward. It makes me laugh when headhunters call and try to take a designer from us. So many of them have come back here because they realize that they're not as good without the team. Max and I get a lot of credit for work that is done by a movement...
