Author Notes:James Charney, MD, has loved movies since taking the first class in film history offered at Columbia University, which led him to develop a popular seminar at Yale University called Madness at the Movies, the basis for his book of the same name. He has taught courses and workshops on film history at The American University in Rome, Arcadia University in Rome, The University of Ljubljana in Slovenia, and the Yale Alumni College.
