Tuesday, February 3

Mr. Potratz passed out a small packet of readings on aspects of early cinema.

We then watched early clips, including the Lumiere actualite, Arrival of a Train, as well as The Countryman and the Cinematograph, That Fatal Sneeze, How It Feels to Be Run Over, and one or two others, with an eye to both the realistic and the magical aspects of early films.

HW due Thursday:
Read the packet and prepare for a quiz on it.
