| 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 likely is it that a man of Danny’s age with his sexual background will be able to change his habits and settle down into a committed relationship? Is he the kind of man a woman could feel comfortable marrying?
The film suffers from several continuity problems. While some may be attributed to the actors’ ad-libbing, what other continuity issues arise? For example, where did the blankets on the beach come from? What challenges does the editing department face in maintaining the movie’s flow?
How does one lie lead to another in this story? Will Danny ever be able to be honest with Palmer?
