Films and Songs



Hi Gang

So I should now be following all of you... that took a while!!  Make sure you keep up to date with your blogs, recording information about anything to do with creative media... try to get into the habit during the summer of writing a post when you visit anywhere related to the art and media industry, that could be a cinema visit or art gallery :)  

Now, songs and films...

It's a tricky business choosing favourite films and songs - I think our choices change regularly depending on mood, so it is a bit subjective!  I was trying to think of my own answer, and for today have come up with Lauren Hill's "Killing Me Softly" (you will only be able to see this link from home!) a song which I have loved for years!!

As for favourite film I have no idea where to start so I'll start in the most obvious place for me!!  As an English teacher (and Media obviously!!) I luuurrrvvveeeeee Dead Poet's Society, particularly the ending which I have put a link for here!!  If you have never seen the film, the ending will perhaps seem a little strange... but it always brings a tear to my eye!!  I'll give you this clip too - it's
inspirational
Have a go at doing this on your blog - we can't view You Tube in school, but it's a good way of letting each other see and hear clips of our interests!!

Keep Blogging :D
