Here is a partial syllabus I reconstructed with some colleagues a few years ago:
Mad Max Jurassic Park Man With A Movie Camera Blow Up Fifth Element Modern Times Enter The Dragon The Piano Fantasia Spartacus Citizen Kane 2001: A Space Odyssey Strange Days Satyricon Singin' in the Rain Intolerance Triumph of the Will Metropolis (bad version) Un Chien Andalou
So in the future, send your children to Harvard for one billion space pesos or whatever and they can be educated in the fields of The Piano and Fantasia.
The final project we submitted for this course in literature at Harvard University (which earned us, as I recall, an A-) was a half-hour, multi-camera comedy pilot called "Jurassic Park: The Sitcom."
This was on the syllabus of Lit-107, which was without question the most pointless class I took as an undergraduate.
ReplyDeleteWhat was Lit-107? What else was on the syllabus?

It is generally believed by the academic community that watching Blow Up is the worst experience that anyone has ever had doing anything.
