Week 12-13 Into 2020!~WINTER VACATION 12/28-1/7
Week 12★Dec 27th
Screening:
The Silence of the Lambs, 1991,
Dir. Jonathan Demme
TRIGGER WARNING ON IN-CLASS SCREENINGS:
All IN-CLASS SCREENINGS are mandatory (=attendance would be strictly taken).
All selected films are masterpieces in their own ways, and for research and
teaching purposes, also based on the tenet of freedom of expression, the
process of selection is not, and should not be subjected to criteria applied to
regular theatrical screenings. NEVERTHELESS, first make sure that you have
reached the age for watching some of the listed films. Some titles may contain
potentially violent, sex, blood, and similarly ‘discomforting’ contents—check
imdb.com to read the plot BEFOREHAND, and you should consult with your teacher
if you have problem attending the screening due to the film’s content. You
could quit the classroom during the screening, if you find the content
disturbing. Make-up work should be done based on mutual-understanding and
communication.
