5-Day Itinerary, 10/23, 10/26-10/29

Friday 10/23 - Thursday 10/29: Schindler's List. The last 5 minutes of each period you will be writing in your composition books in response to the following prompt:

We have discussed the role of character foils in several of the works we have read this semester, and it is clear that Spielberg intended Itzhak Stern to be a foil to Oskar Schindler (or vice versa), especially for the first 2/3 of the story. At the end of each class period, answer this question -
How was each man charatcerized during this part of the film, and how does the "foil" relationship contribute to your impression of each up to this point?

HW 10/23-10/30: Work on response paper.
