As I mention in my book on Cuban Cinema, the Cuban film critic J.M.Valdés
Rodríguez began to teach cinema at the University of Havana in the early to
middle 1940s. My informant for this was Alfredo Guevara (first president of
ICAIC, the Cuban Film Institute set up in 1959). Guevara said that V-R made
an arrangement to obtain copies of films to be screened from New York.

Subject: Film as an university teaching subject
Resource-pooling time: what is the earliest instance of someone advocating
film/the cinema as an academic subject that you've seen or seen referenced?
(This as distinct from how-to-make-films school, though there's room for
debate there of course!)
