This course examines the very beginnings of independent filmmaking in the United States, focusing on the auteurs who would emerge from outside of the studio system—John Cassavetes, Shirley Clarke—as well as the even further outsiders who may have produced only one now-canonical film and then disappeared altogether from the American cinematic landscape. The broad variety of films considered include women and African-American pioneers, and the rare filmmakers who began within the studio system—Samuel Fuller, Ida Lupino—only to find greater freedom of expression and experimentation outside the system
