Gerald Sim
Assistant Professor
gsim@fau.edu
Ph.D. 2007, Film Studies, University of Iowa
Gerald Sim specializes in American cinema, national cinema, and critical theory. As he helps to develop the international cinema curriculum at FAU, his scholarship on world film appears in Inter-Asia Cultural Studies, Film Quarterly, and Asian Cinema.
His research method is informed by historical materialism, which lies at the heart of published and forthcoming articles on CNBC personality Jim Cramer in Rethinking Marxism, on commercial cinema's move to digital cinematography in Projections, and on cognitive film music theory in the Quarterly Review of Film and Video. He is currently at work on a book-length manuscript, a historical materialist evaluation of film studies' engagements with race. He has taught graduate seminars on the Frankfurt School, and Film Theories of Spatiality.
He serves as a regular correspondent from the True/False Documentary Film Festival for Framework, and also holds a degree in biology from Duke University.
