| 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 did Tom’s inability to say no lead to his problems? Was it a skill he learned by then end of the film? Can a person learn to say no graciously but firmly?
What contradictions does this movie try to pass off as truths? How employable would Tom be following the events at the Taylor home? How likely is it that a person would change after merely overhearing one conversation?
Lisa says that truth is essential in relationships. Is honesty portrayed in the interactions between people in this film?
