For cultural activity 2, please find a Spanish-language film to watch and analyze. This means a film produced in Spanish, (not "The Lion King" in Spanish, for example). It must be produced in Spanish! Check IMDb or Wikipedia to verify that your movie was produced in Spanish, and not in English.

After watching, do some additional research into the cultural and/or historical components of the film, and write a brief summary of the film (1 paragraph, single-spaced (25 pts) , and a 1-page, single-spaced analysis (75 pts) discussing 2 or more cultural or historical themes that you gleaned from the film (see example below).

You can write the summary paragraph and the 1-page cultural analysis in English, although it would be great if you attempt some portion of your summary in Spanish (You can use present tense verbs, "hay", "ser", "ir", "gustar", etc!).

There is an abundance of films to choose from on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Youtube, as well as in the tutoring lab in room 251 of the Liberal Arts building on campus where you could borrow a film for free. Think of a genre that interests you, find some movie options, and then verify that the film you choose is produced in Spanish. Please: choose a film that interests you! Don't choose a film that will bore you. If you need some suggestions, feel free to email me.

Example: If I were to watch "Pan's Labyrinth" (El laberinto del fauno), I would write a 1-paragraph summary of the film, and then I would do some research about the Spanish Civil War and include that in my write up, because that is a prevalent cultural/historical theme in the movie. I would also find another topic to research that I picked up on during the film (If you choose this film, you must choose different themes to research and discuss.)
