Class Act

Cary Grant & Katharine Hepburn in Bringing Up Baby
Adaptation
Well, that sure was a great class last night! My students were just so well prepared to discuss Rear Window and the whole concept of adapting a text as a film! I just hope we don't lose too much momentum next week, which we have off for Memorial Day.  Meanwhile, we watched Bringing Up Baby and I had the feeling that at least most of the students enjoyed both the verbal humor and the slapstick gags. You'd think that nearly four hours per night would be enough time to cover everything, but we had to leave a few loose ends hanging. Guess we'll tie them up next time.
