Cats and Dogs

After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.

In the movie, Professor Brody struggles to spend time with his son. Besides being busy with his research, do you think he felt his responsibility as a dad? For Scott (Alexander Polluck), was it more important that his dad was a great soccer player or that they spent time playing together?

To make this movie, more computerized imaging tools were developed. These new techniques allowed the production staff to "scan" an entire animal, then take that data and manipulate it in any way they desired. To learn more about the digital technologies involved, check the movie’s extensive web site at: http://catsanddogsmovie.warnerbros.com.
