Based on everyone's schedules, it seems our best bet will be to stick with the 6-8 p.m. time slot on Wednesday, Sept. 17 because the movie runs over two hours (it's Shakespeare, what can we do) and some people have a commitment at nine. We'll be meeting in Madeleva 233. Please let me know if you have any dietary restrictions.
Also, by way of preparation, you might want to take a look at this brief introduction to reading/analyzing film put together by the organization Film Education. Much like a work of art or a text, there are structural and stylistic elements in films that combine with overall narratives to produce a sense of meaning for audiences. If you were interested in writing about film, Dartmouth has a great overview of the challenges of the process and strategies for success.
Finally, don't forget to comment on one another's blogs! This is a huge feature of blogging and will help facilitate class discussion each week.
