Movies review

 La Mission, for David Avalos’ class next week: pay special attention to the custom car art, mural art, dances, ceremonies . . . setting is Very important. And of course, pay attention to the different views of what constitutes “masculinity.” (In Cougar Courses)

2. La Familia / My Family, with Jimmie Smits, et al.   In Cougar Courses
Again, pay special attention to the HOUSE, the colors, the decorations, etc designed by artist Patssi Valdez. Also to the role of women in the film, the role of the corn, the milpa.

 you should comment on whatever is most significant for you, what will you remember about the film a year from now, how did it inspire you (or not). I am interested in your reaction to the film, your analysis of why it was moving, compelling, boring, redundant, exciting for you, and why.
