| How We Determine Our Grades | |
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.
How does Tony justify his murder plot? What role, if any, did he play in his wife’s affair? Does one wrong justify another in this case?
Does Alfred Hitchcock develop a strong, believable plotline or does he ask audiences to simply accept the outcome in this movie? What elements does he use to create suspense?
