auteurs

in your opinion?)

Then watch the Academy Awards or review the information online or in the newspaper 

after the fact to answer the following:

responding to and celebrating about these 2 performances? (Connections to this week’s reading 

are appreciated!)

voters respond positively to these films in particular, in your opinion?
