Film Studies Daily Log

Tuesday, February 9

Mr. P passed out copies of the "Classical Hollwood Cinema: Style" packet again, this time containing even- as well as odd-numbered pages. Friday was announced as the date to try again with the quiz over it.

We proceeded to watch the first scene of Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt, to discuss it briefly, and then to read the initial section of the packet, which analyzes the mise en scene of that scene. Afterwards, we watched a bit more of the film (to be continued Wednesday).

HW due Friday:
Read "Classical Hollwood Cinema: Style." There will be a quiz over it in class that day.
