SCREENING: you have until Aug 15 to screen the lecture and the movies. The longest one is L'ALBERO DEGLI ZOCCOLI.

FOR EACH video, or film, or episode: write a maximum of 20 individual bullet points, 2-3 lines maximum per point.

No long paragraphs, no long narratives, no overarching theme. Real notes. Mention the point and, if you want, the reason why you mentioned it.

 
Task 2:    Briefly but convincingly: what was the most important film you watched, in the CONTEXT OF LEARNING ABOUT ITALIANS (not the Renaissance, not the Roman Empire, not WW1 or WWII.)
 
Task 3:   write a letter to the course as if the course were a real person with a will and intention. DO NOT WRITE TO ME. Do not even mention me in the letter.  Don't write to complain about how much work you had.  Write to the course and tell the course what you think about IT.
