It's Bambi week in my course

Check out what students are learning this week. We are watching the 1942 Disney classic, Bambi, digitally re-mastered last year in glorious DVD.

Here is a shot from the film that I've always admired: Bambi has just rescued Faline from being pursued by a pack of hounds from hell, and is shot in mid-air from an unseen hunter just offscreen as he (Bambi) is leaping across a fifty yard chasm between two cliffs. Nice shot!


Obviously I'm not quite as irreverant when I'm showing the film to students . . . I keep my cheering to myself.

Anyway. That's this week. This is this.
