Classically Entertaining
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful
Ironically, I purchased the DVD to use in my high school classroom. The film itself is a satire of Arthurian Legends, but it had 15-17 year olds laughing uncontrolably! This latest edition provided great feat... read full review

The Giver by Lois Lowry (2002, Paperback, Reprint)
Excellent insight and forshadowing into the nnovel.
I purchased this book after watching and analyzing the movie The Village with an Honors English class. A student mentioned that they had read The Giver, and some the underlying themes and tones were present in... read full review
DVD: Ethan Frome (DVD, 2003) 
Accurate
I purchased the DVD to watch after reading the novel by Edith Wharton. The movie version is not a reproduction of the book's story line, but it is true enough to get the gist. read full review
DVD: The Crucible (DVD, 2004) 
Accurate
This portrayal is a little racy to show to younger classrooms, and it does veer from the plot in order to utilize more movie magic. Overall, it is capable of being shown after reading the play so that a compar... read full review
DVD: The Great Gatsby (DVD, 2003)

Book: Uncle Remus and Brer Rabbit by Joel Chandler Harris (1999, Hardcover, Repri... 
Straight on.
I wanted this children's classic for two reasons. First, I am Southern and this book captures the dialect of the old South, especially the black dialect, like no other. Because of its publication date, it... read full review
DVD: Happy Feet (DVD, 2007, Widescreen) 
Perfect!!
I love this as a children's movie. I was a little disappointed with the ending, and felt it was too far fetched even for children's fiction. My children love the catchy music and dancing penguin Mum... read full review
