Time for the Altman blog post? It's OK with me.


Here are some ideas for the Altman blog post (due Thursday):

o Discuss/analyze an important scene from one of the films
o Expand on a discussion question from class, whether from a film or a reading
o Make a connection to the real world/current events
o Discuss/analyze an aspect of cinematic style important to the film(s)
o Discuss/analyze a topic or theme important to the film(s)
o Relate it to another film, either from class or personal viewing
o Discuss ideas for future viewing inspired by the film(s)

Director movie club


OK, here we go. Click here to get to the list(s) of directors you can choose from. Don't forget to have one person in your group comment on this post, and leave the following information: The names of everyone in your group, and your top three directors you'd like to study for this project, listed in order of preference.
As soon as I let you know which director you're studying, you'll need to get crackin', because your first post is due Feb. 12. Good luck!
Also: If your blog is not linked in the appropriate class list to the right, make sure to leave your URL (blog address) along with your name and class period in a comment on this post.
