Minutes- 3/9/09

Today we began class by talking about the new movie Watchmen. Mr. Laz mentioned that he will be holding the discussion group for those who have read the book, or seen the movie. It will be next Monday (3/16/09) at 2:00 PM. He also said that anyone who would like to is more than welcome to write a paper about any of the various questions that were addressed in Watchmen.
We were also reminded that our paper comparing 2 of the videos of the "Rogue" soliloquy in Act 2 of Hamlet is due this Friday (3/13/09)
We spent the remainder of the period watching video of the "To be or not to be" speech as well as Hamlet's confrontation with Ophelia in Act 3. We watched the 2 major motion picture versions starring Mel Gibson & Kenneth Branagh. While watching we were to be asking ourselves questions, especially, At what point is it that Hamlet realizes that he is being watched?
Laz also told us that tomorrow we will be starting Act 3, Scene 2 so be ready.
