I am determined to watch Singing in the Rain. The clips that you showed in class were hilarious and I loved all of the costumes and backgrounds that we got to see while you fast forwarded. I also think that it would help me with my studies since I am taking two other film classes and the movie goes through the history of film. I am glad that we are starting to get into more modern medium. I have seen Birth of a Nation and am glad that we will not be watching it in our class. I like the film, it is just very long and hard to follow sometimes.
