Roots and Oh Brother, Where Art Thou. If you haven't seen It's a Wonderful Life yet then you must not be a true american.

[Anthoni]

To Kill a Mockingbird, is a good movie. Well the newer version, the old one kind of sucked.

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, is a great movie. It's gotta be one of my favorites.

The Cruiciable, I watched this in American Lit. It's actually a good movie about early americans and all that witch stuff with John Proctor and such. I strongly recommend that one.

Red Badge Of Courge-I only read the book, and it was actually pretty good, I don't know about the movie.

Roots is a good show, I didn't really like it because I watched it in school, but now that I think about it, it was pretty good.

 

Sorry I didn't do what you said, I was just giving my opinions on some of them :P

 

 

*Edit*I also seen Little Women in American Lit. That was also a good movie, it's just kind of hard to expalin :P

[Tyler]

So far I've done 1 movie, and I am working on my review right now. I watched The Pursuit of Happyness for the period of Vietnam and Recent History.

 

I have Apollo 13 picked out for 1960's/Civil Rights and Pearl Harbor picked out for WWII/Cold War/1950s.

Oh and the Great Gatsby sucks as a movie so don't bother.

[1 Purerange0]

personally id watch 300 to get in grips with my deep historical mind

[Tyler]

Oh and the Great Gatsby sucks as a movie so don't bother.

 

I saw the movie and read the book in English last year.

 

I personally loved the book, which doesn't happen very often, especially a book that I'm told to read. The movie was pretty bleh, but it did take up like 2 or 3 class days.

[Mark]

Crucible, Red Badge, Mockingbird and Grapes

[Lamotrigine]

Scarface

[Jonty]

I'm reading the color purple in English right now, it's my last book for high school. If your interested in seeing black women raped then go with it.
