Final Exam: Film and Culture

Joan Is Awful: Black Mirror


Here are the words you need to remember for the Final Exam: paragraph, reality show, awful, repair, misogyny, misanthrope, come out of the closet, filial piety, foreshadow, colony, caravan, wagon, trailer, gypsy, thieving, hide, hint, jewels, Western, traditional, genre, twist of fate, criminal, outcast person, novel, society, chronological order, is,  watch


I need three homework assignments. I gave a free 20/20. So, the total is 80 divided by 4 = 20% of your grade. 

Here’s the deal. The test is next week. I will do it the same as the midterm. You have to remember some vocabulary (which I will send by tomorrow at the latest). If you watched all the movies, you can answer the comprehension questions. You have to write a couple of paragraphs too. Remember a paragraph is five or more sentences. To develop a paragraph, use:

1. Chronological order: first, then, after, finally.

2. Transition words: furthermore, however, therefore, etc.

3. W5: who, what, when, where, why

4. Most importantly, simply explain what you are talking about. 

You have to hand in three homework assignments. I gave you a free 20/20 for the fourth. 

Sorry about the mangled homework. 

Foreshadow: give a hint about what will happen later

“When my father passed (died), I wanted nothing more than my mother’s happiness. For what kind of man would I be if I didn’t help my mother? If I did not save her?”

Twist of fate: surprise ending
