Film and Culture: The Field Trip

In our course schedule, this is the week where my Film and Culture class takes a break from the classroom and goes out to something that's a first-run film in a movie theater.

We've spent the semester talking about race, class, and gender so far, and this is an opportunity to apply our cultural criticism skills on something that is very current.

We'll watch the film, then have a discussion about it in the lobby of the theater. I'm on my toes as well, because I don't know what we are going to go see. We will determine that in class through a (somewhat) democratic process.
