Hey y’all, even though we’re still in the middle of summer, the good grade 11 student that I am has come to a realization.
We are going to have to write the english diploma.
So since we have some time during the summer, maybe we can watch some of the suggested movies to utilize in Part A of the diploma – the Critical/Analytical Response to Literary Texts Assignment.
My reference is from the 2020-21 Alberta Education Student Guide for ELA 30-1 – but I guarantee you that they have all the classics. I, myself, have not watched many of them, however, I’m planning to take some time to finally watch them.
Without further ado, here is the list:
- Apocalypse Now
- Atonement
- A Beautiful Mind
- Big Fish
- Blindspotting
- Blue Jasmine
- Children of Men
- Dead Poets Society
- The Godfather
- The King’s Speech
- Lady Bird
- Lars and the Real Girl
- Moonlight
- One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
- Pleasantville
- The Shawshank Redemption
- Stranger than Fiction
- Synecdoche, New York
- The Truman Show
That’s all I got for you guys! I might write another post about Short Stories, Novels, Plays etc. to study if y’all are interested. As always, if you have any comments, questions, or just any suggestions, feel free to shoot me an email at ranyabajaj1@gmail.com.
I’m rootin’ for ya!
