OK, I decided on the film we'll be viewing the last week of classes.
We're going to watch Eraserhead, David Lynch's first feature-length film. This is perhaps the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. But that's not the point necessarily... what we're going to do is watch the film and then I will have you write a response about it in class, and your task will be to consider, is this a postmodern film, or a modernist (surrealist or expressionist, perhaps) one? So brush up on your knowledge of the differences between modern and postmodern art and prepare to be unsettled.
