Due to circumstances beyond our control, we're making a change in the class schedule. Instead of having a class on 2/24 that's mostly devoted to lecture and discussion, we're going to have a discussion of Chicago and then we'll use most of the rest of our time to watch The Verdict.
Your Chicago papers are still due on 2/24. And it would be a good idea to read the NY Times review of The Verdict before class.
The following week, 3/3, is during Spring Break. On 3/10, our first week back from break, we'll have a class that is mostly lecture and discussion.
TALKING POINTS, CHICAGO:
1) What
is this film saying about the legal system, through either
its song-and-dance sequences or in some other way?
2) What
is this film saying about a legal trial, specifically?
3) Is
Chicago
cynical or just realistic?
