Cambridge Week 5

New Classes

This half of the program I am only taking one class. It is on the magic of cinema through the works of the two greatest British film makers, Powell and Pressburger (The Archers). Our teacher is from Scotland and seems very knowledgable on all the topics. Luckily I am not the only one who has only taken one or no film classes. Despite it being my minor, I know very little about film. What is nice about the classes at PKP is that if you have no knowledge on the topic, you can still do well and learn a lot. I am very excited to be watching films I have never seen before. I think I will do the screenwriting assignment and hope for the best. I have never written one before so this will all be new to me!

Only 3 days of class for me this week! Very happy about that because it means I can go to London early for water polo. Yay! (Our teacher has decided to take away a few of the discussions so that we can do movie screenings at night instead...what luck for me with my busy weekend schedules!)
