A Guy Thing

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 did one lie lead to another for Paul? Do you think the consequences he imagined are accurate? What were the costs of telling falsehoods?

How could Becky’s ability to hold a job reflect on her capacity to stay in a relationship? Is there a difference between pursuing your passions and being able to stick to a task?

Movies often portray characters in a very one-dimensional way. Karen is serious while Becky is spontaneous and fun loving. How does their hair color play into those depictions? Are all people so easily pigeonholed? What qualities would you look for in a spouse?
