An Introduction to Citizen Kane
What follows is a podcast with an introduction to the classic film Citizen Kane intended for use with my grade 11 film studies class. This film is typically the final film we watch, and is a culmination of all that we have learned in the course about film. This last year for various reasons, about a fifth of my class was away on the day that I absolutely had to introduce our final film. It was a considerable nuisance to recap what I had explained the following day for the benefit of those who had been away. Now that I have recorded this podcast, I could use this to help students who had missed out on crucial information. I might record more for other films that we will be studying not only for the benefit of students who are away, but a quick reminder to myself of the points that I need to hit as I am introducing the film. (I am notorious [in my own mind] for not being able to follow lecture notes)
