Course Recap for Friday, October 7, 2016

Homework
  • Read Cult Movie Review: Carrie by John Kenneth Muir and Horror, Femininity, and Carrie's Monstrous Puberty by Shelley Stamp Lindsey.  As you're reading these articles, take notes on the different themes these writers saw in the movie Carrie.  What did they feel the movie had to say about the world, about high school, about womanhood, and any other topics the movie addresses?  Also make note of what things from the movie they believe help illustrate these themes. (The Horror, Femininity, and Carrie's Puberty is a VERY dense piece.  Please give yourself enough time to parse through it.  The intro in particular can be a bit hard to understand but it becomes less so as you continue.  Do not give up.  Summarize it the best that you can.) Due Friday October 15 in class
  • If you could analyze two movies for your next paper, which movies would they be?  Have them in mind when you come to class Friday.
