The deadline for all of the makeup work is April 6, 2015 at 2:30 p.m..
Monday, March 23rd:
We watched a movie titled Lars and the Real Girl, and completed this film guide. You may watch the video online using a service, or it will be screened during SMART lunch on the following dates: Thursday, April 2nd & finish Tuesday April 7th (deadline can be extended for this assignment).
When you have completed that, pick 4 of the following discussion questions and answer fully:
1. In what way is Bianca an "All American" Girl?
2. Bianca's crate she arrives in looks like a coffin. What is that symbolic of?
3. Assess Lars' social intelligence; compare and contrast that with the community's social intelligence. Explain / support
4. Lars and Gus are brothers and seem to have nothing in common. But they do have one thing in common - guilt. Why?
5. Who is / are "the real girl(s)" in the movie if NOT Bianca? Explain.
6. Why was it so ingenious that the filmmakers left the circumstances of Biana's death so unclear?
7. When, at the funeral, Gus looks over the crowd and says, "It's incredible.", what do you think he is refrring to and why?
Tuesday, March 24th:
Show and Tell - directions
Wednesday, March 25th:
