We watched, then rewatched, the famous final scene of City Lights. Students then spent ten minutes writing a detailed description of what happens in the scene, followed by a brief prediction of what is likely to happen next. Students volunteered to read their papers, and some turned out to have even taken the assignment seriously! Different views surfaced of whether the ending of the film is a "happily ever after" ending or not.
Mr. P then distributed a handout with a compilation of critical comments on the scene over the years.
HW due Thursday:
Read the handout.
