In the second half of the summer quarter, we will focus on American history and culture through the lens of popular movies and television. Please POST/REPLY a few words here about your interest in movies and American history and culture.
If you're not sure what to write, you may answer one or many of the following questions:
1. What is the first movie you remember seeing in a theater?
2. What was your favorite movie when you were a child?
3. What is your favorite movie now?
4. What is your favorite movie genre? (Action, Drama, Romantic Comedy, Historical Epic, Western, Horror, etc.)
5. Are there any particular aspects of American culture that interest you? Such as, Baseball, Basketball, Sports in General, Hollywood, New York Finance, Urban Lifestyles, Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, the Midwest, Entrepreneurial Spirit, Freedom of Speech, Equal Rights, the Civil Rights Movement, Multi-Culturalism, Women's Rights, etc. (I will use your answer to this question to help me decide which films to study.)
See you on Monday!
