Film Study
Today I got the chance to read a whole lot of articles for my Intro to Film Study class. There is alot of reading in that class and every class we watch movies. Not regular movies that we see these days but more like in the oldies version. For example, in the first day of class we watched Winchester ’73 which is a Western film that is black and white. I heard someone say that if a person who is used to colored films watches black and white, they wont enjoy the film at all. Well they were right. :winktongue The movie was so boring that I almost fell asleep. I admit the plot wasnt that bad but still. Then on Thursday we went to see North by NorthWest by Alfred Hitchcock which is a colored film made in 1959. The movie was rather long but the plot was great and there were some funny parts. The only movie that I am looking forward to seeing is Gingersnaps. :smile
VANESSA! thank god i found you man. :P i thought you disappeared or something. anyway im going to add you back up at efflux.org. sorry for the delay, i didnt know you had a new domain
The oldest (American) movie I have seen must be Casablanca.
If most of films you see in the class are kind of boring, let’s think hey, at least I got something much much more interesting to do than listening to those boring lecturers for the whole period!
And of course, it’s supposed to be more fun than doing research the whole week. ;-(
