Re: "The best that film can offer?"

>>do you want all foreign films(Inernational would include U.S. films, right?<<

Yes, films from all nations.

>>Second, is this a study of film as art, film as history, landmark films, or a "compare and contrast" the films of various nations, etc.<<

My friend is thinking landmark at this point. Film as a cultural high point.

>>I fear that Grand Illusion may be beyond the average high school student's (even those that are budding cinema junkies) attention span.<<

THis is always a problem with high school students (and too many adults): Will it hold their attention? I think Bicycle Thief and Cinema Paradiso will. Not sure about Citizen Kane, Casablanca, or (I hate to leave it off the list) Grand Illusion.
