ploeppWe have just read „Of Mice And Men“ by John Steinbeck. Lots of slang words and a very tragic ending, but I liked the book, anyway.
After having read the text, we watched the film and made some scene analysis. 1 minute film – then writing down what happens, the music and the camera angles, blah blah – 1 minute film – and so on. Very annoying.
I had to read this book too. Well I didn’t really remember IF i read it or if i just read the summaries. But we haven’t watched the film. Well the last book we had to „read“ was „Romeao&Juliet“ and the language is quiet annoying. But all in all it’s MUCH better than the movies. But we had to analyze them too and it was – as i thought – very easy. To guess why the director chose this camera angle,…and so on.
