I took this class in order to expand my knowledge of history through the movies we watch. I felt that watching reenactments of events throughout history would ultimately give me a better understanding of them than just reading them. Since I never have the time to actually sit down and watch a movie out of school, I also thought that this class would give me a chance to relax.
I expect to learn much about history through the films that we watch, and to earn a new respect for film making. I also expect this class to be one where I can just kickback and enjoy myself while watching the films.
