Note: Our exam is scheduled for 8.15a on Monday, June 16th. I’ll bring the popcorn; unless we’ve made other arrangements, it is YOUR responsibility to bring a copy of the film and your written analysis. Be sure that know where to find your scene so that we don’t run out of time for everyone to present! Is that too early for popcorn, do you think?
