18. >>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> We love watching films (= movies in American English) – either on TV, on DVD, downloaded onto our PCs or at the cinema. What sort of films do you enjoy? You've got a lot of genres (type of movie) to choose from: westerns (set in the American Wild West) or spaghetti westerns (those filmed in Italy) to action films (fights, car chases etc), adventure (an exciting or unusual experience), animated (cartoons), or horror (lots of blood or ghostly visits). Perhaps you prefer comedy (funny) or "romcom" (romantic comedy) or dramas (any situation or series of events having vivid, emotional, conflicting, or striking interest or results). Sometimes these are epics (long, historical dramas) and sometimes these are adaptations (adapted either from a previous film, or from a book or play). What about thrillers (or suspense), or musicals (with song and dance) and science fiction (set in a futuristic world)? Or maybe you prefer the old black and white films, or the classics (serving as a standard, model, or guide). In a celebrity-obsessed world, actors are as famous as politicians (maybe even more so!) We like to see our favourite actors playing a character – even a minor character – in films, whether these are in lead roles (=main roles), or supporting roles (not main roles). Every year, the Oscars gives awards to lead actors and supporting actors, but never to the extras (the actors who play people in a crowd, often without a speaking part.) We like reading the film credits, firstly to see who's in the cast (everyone who acted in the film) and if there's a special appearance by a famous actor who's only in the film for a couple of minutes. Then we like to see who the director or producer is, the screenwriter who wrote the screenplay (the script that the actors speak) and who composed the soundtrack (the music background in the film). We'll read film reviews to find out more about the plot (or storyline) and how good the lighting, cinematography (art of shooting the film) or costumes are. We might even watch a trailer (short extract from the film) to see the special effects

19. >>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> Describing a film If you've just seen a great film, you might want to tell your friends about it. Here are some ways you can tell the story (plot) of a film you've seen. –It's set in…(New York / in the 1950's). The film's shot on location in Arizona. The main characters are … and they're played by… It's a mystery / thriller / love-story. You can tell the story of the film in the present simple tense. –Well, the main character decides to… (rob a bank) But when he drives there… Giving your opinion –I thought the film was great / OK / fantastic… The actors / costumes / screenplay are/is … The special effects are fantastic / terrible The best scene / the worst scene is when… The plot is believable / seems a bit unlikely Not telling all –You don't want to spoil the film for your friends, so you can say something like: –"I don't want to spoil it for you, so I'm not going to tell you what happens in the end.“ –"You'll have to go and see it for yourself.“ –"I don't want to ruin the surprise for you." Useful adjectives: All these are useful words and phrases to spice up your description: –true-to-life (a real story) the real story of remarkable (unusual, good) masterpiece (the best work someone has done) oscar-winning

24. >>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> You Should Watch the movie extracts before class –If you haven’t seen the movie you may want to watch it with Korean subtitles to aid understanding. If you have seen it you should try watching with English subtitles or no subtitles depending on your ability) Watch the movie in small segments of around 20mins Watch the movie extracts more than once –Three times is ideal but any viewing at all helps! –-The first time you should watch for the MAIN IDEA. Don’t take notes or worry about unknown vocabulary, just see how much you can understand. –-The second time you may want to write anything you don’t understand. This could be vocabulary, grammar or questions about events. There will be time at the beginning of each lesson to discuss any problems. –-The third time will be in class and will complete activities together. Concentrate on what you CAN understand (not what you can’t) Participate in all class activities and volunteer answers!

25. >>0 >>1 >> 2 >> 3 >> 4 >> You Shouldn’t Worry because you don’t understand everything in the movie. The idea is to use the movie to improve your English. You can still improve your English through watching movies even if you only understand a little! Watch the whole movie (unless it’s with Korean subtitles) at all once. As you know it is hard to fully concentrate on English for that long so you won’t get the most out of it. Be afraid to be wrong. You will learn just by participating. Participating is more useful than having the right answer all the time.
