Many would agree that the best Ph. D. program in film is the Uiversity 
of Chicago's. Two of the faculty there, James Lastra and Tom Gunning, do 
have a special interst in avant-garde film. I have known many of their 
students, who are generally excellent, and they have a good record of 
placing graduates in jobs. The program is, however, highly competitive, 
and only a few are admitted. I'm sure they can give you more currenbt 
information.

If there is a Ph.D. program "specialized" in avant-garde film, I'd like 
to hear of it!

Now I am thinking about pursuing PhD in film studies in the U.S. again and researching about schools and PhD programs specialised in avant-garde film or at least friendly to experimental film. If you have some information and experience, please help my research.
