Assignment for the week. Graduates, please email essays to me at elkrugamigos@earthlink.net; undergraduates, please bring printed copies to class:
There is no new written assignment for this week.

Next week's class is the cutoff date: all five of the previous assignments (on 1/ The Battle of Algiers; 2/ neo-realism; 3/ Fort Apache; 4/ Bresson, Ray or Clarke; and 5/ voice-over in the French New Wave) must have been turned in by the beginning of the next class, on March 6.

Students who have not done so will be dropped from the class with a grade of NC.

Please note that there is no need to bring all your corrected assignments back to class next week! You simply need to bring any of the first five assignments that you have not yet turned in.
