Classic American Film, Thursday, Period 4

When the students first arrived to class, Ziva was too busy reading through her e-mail to greet them like she usually did. After a minute, she finally realized that she needed to start class, and shut her laptop, putting on a small, forced smile to hide her stress.

"Good afternoon," she said. "Today, we will be getting into the 'classic' part of our class title. The American Civil War was one of the bloodiest and deadliest wars in this country's history, and there have been so many films set in that time period that we could spend an entire semester on those movies alone, and still have some left that would remain unwatched. We, however, only have time to focus on one such film, so I decided that we should watch Left With the Breeze. It might be an old film - it was made seventy years ago - but it still appears on many lists as one of the best movies ever made."

Eying her laptop, and all of the e-mails from Ducky and Abby that she still had to read, Ziva added, "We will not be having a discussion question today. All you must do is stay seated and watch the movie." Somehow, she didn't think the students would mind her sudden change of plans.

Firekeeper would blanch at the very idea of throwing popcorn. Food was for eating, there were plenty of other things to throw at people!

Not that she was throwing anything, really. She was much too interested in the movie.

Quinn wasn't objecting to not having to really do anything in class today, no. She loved Crimson anyhow. If she ever got caught in a war like that, Crimson would be her role model.

This was another movie Bod had never seen so he was paying attention to it even if he found himself a little bored in parts.

Ooh, no discussion. Did this mean Jane could maybe sneak a nap in? She might try...

Helen watched the movie with some fascination.

George kind of wanted to slap Crimson.

At least she wasn't at work.

This wasn't the best film Joolushko had seen during her time here. That didn't make it any less engrossing though.
