Notting Hill

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.

The scene at a birthday party for William’s sister, gives Anna an opportunity to talk about the negative side of being a celebrity. Does that change your feelings about what it’s like to be famous?

The story includes a character who depends on a wheelchair. How often do we see physically challenged people in movies? Do they usually play a “regular” role like this one?

With scenes depicting sexual relations prior to marriage and William suggesting that his flat-mate masturbates, you may want to discuss with your children these issues or any others that may not meet your family’s standards.
